Have you ever felt stuck between what used to be and what is coming next?
Life is like the weather, always changing. Sometimes, these changing are small, like a sunny day turning into a rainy afternoon. Other times, they are big, like summer changing into winter. These big changes are what we call transitional seasons. A transitional season is a time in life when something big is changing. It could be something exciting or something scary. They are times when our familiar routines are interrupted, and we are pushed out of our comfort zones. During these times, everything can feel different, and it might be hard to know what to do next. Transitional seasons challenge our current identity and often force us to redefine our goals, values, and priorities.
Life is a journey filled with twists, turns, and unexpected roadblocks. At times, it can feel like we’re navigating a maze of challenges, each obstacle testing our resolve and determination. Yet, it’s often these very obstacles that hold the key to our growth, resilience, and ultimate success. In this fast-paced world, mastering the art of overcoming obstacles is not just a skill – it’s a mindset that can propel you toward success and fulfillment. In this post I dive into the art of overcoming obstacles – the strategies, the pitfalls, and the transformative power that lies within each hurdle. Whether yu’re facing a career setback, a personal struggle, or a dream that seems just out of reach, take a ride on a journey of discoverys as I uncover the secrets to conquering life’s challenges and emerging stronger on the other side.
My Traveling Friend, have you ever faced a seemingly insurmountable obstacle and wondered how to conquer it? Maybe it was a career challenge, a personal struggle, or a goal that felt out of reach. Overcoming obstacles is a crucial skill that can and will transform yur life and lead you to success. But how exactly can you, my traveling friend, navigate these hurdles effectively?
Ready to emabrace the challenge and emerge stronger than ever? Then, let’s dive in!
Think about a time when you faced a major obstacle. What was your initial reaction, and how did you eventually overcome it?
What stategies did you use to overcome the obstacle, and what did you learn from that experience?
When someone tackles obstacles in a healthy manner, they often exhibit resilience, creativity, and perseverance. They don’t let setbacks define them but rather use them as steppingstones toward growth and achievement. Healthy overcoming of obstacles involves self-reflection, learning from mistakes, and maintaining a positive mindset throughtout the process.
Overcoming obstacles in a healthy manner offers a multitude of benefits that can significantly impact an individual’s life. First and foremost, it fosters personal rowth by challenging individuals to develop new skills, deepen self-awareness, and enance problem-solving abilities. This growth isn’t just about overcoming specific obstacles but also about evolving into a more resilient and adaptable person overall. Additionally, successfully navigating obstacles brings a profound sense of achievement, boosting confidence and motivation to tackle even greater challenges. It cultivates resilience, teaching individuals how to bounce back from setbacks stronger and more capable than before. Moreover, each obstacle conquered opens up new opportunities, expands networks, and broadens perspectives, ultimately leading to more fulfilling and meaningful life journey.
When it comes to overcoming obstacles, there are three commom mistakes that individuals often make. The first is ignoring the problem altogether, either out of fear, avoidance, or denial. By failing to acknowledge and adressing the obstacle, individuals hinder their progress and may find themselves stuck in a cycle of frustration. The second mistake is a lack of planning or strategy. Jumping into overcoming obstacles without a clear plan can lead to wasted effort, ineffective solutions, and unnecessary setbacks. Finally, negative self-talk and limiting beliefs can be significant barriers. Allowing negative thoughts to dominate can undermine confidence, motivation, and resilience, making it harder to overcome obstacles in a healthy and effective manner.
Imagine facing a daunting obstacle, feeling unsure of how to proceed. I’ve been there, and I understand the challenges firsthand. But with the right approach, you can turn challenges into steppingstones toward success. That’s why I want to share with you a 4 step startegy that has been a game-changer for me and my clients.

GOD is good……. Okay guys remember when I said that I decided to let God guide me on my weight lost journey instead of doing it the world’s way, and all I can say is that my GOD is good. So, it has been a full week since I started to continue my weight lost journey with God and I see results on the scale. Continue reading “My Weight Lost Journey: 2 Years and 299 Days”

Okay guys, welcome to my new home. As I told you all, this year is about stepping out of my comfort zone, and believe me when I say making this change was big step out of my comfort zone, and I have to say that I was able to take that leap because of my weight loss journey. As you can see I have been on this journey for a while now, and I must say that I have been tested, and scared, and push down so many times on this weight loss journey; but I have the strength to continue to get up and continue to move forward. So, before I get into my story I would like to thank you all for your continue support and patience during my transition. Okay, enough of that now time for the nitty gritty-my final hip hop fitness class (what happened?).
My last hip hop fitness class was on Thursday, February 11, 2016, and I and so much fun. I actually learned the moves and I was able to add my own flavor to the moves. The first day I went I just knew that I was going to look a hot mess, and I was right. But I was able to catch on the moves quickly-but I stilled looked a mess. The second class I was less nervous, and the women in the group actually stared to talk to me; so I was becoming a part of the group. By the third class, I felt like a pro and that I belonged in the class. I was so comfortable in the class that I took picture of myself. Not only did I feel comfortable, but I was looking forward to the class on Thursday because that class was like my little get away from the stress of the world. And then the fourth class came I was happy and sad all at the same time. I was happy because I did not quit because of my fears and I was sad because it was the last class. During this class I noticed that I was really confident in myself, and even when I messed up (and I did) I did not feel like I was a hot mess; I stop watched and jumped right back into it.
So, what did I learn from attending the hip hop fitness class (taking a leap and doing something new)? I learned that walking by faith can feel scary, but my God did not give me a spirit of fear, but once you actually take that first step by faith that the fear will go. I also learn that I can do anything that I put my mind to, and that it is okay to be myself. The first class that I attended I tried to dance just like to instructor of the class, but as I continued to go to the class I began to be myself. And when I was just me I had more fun in the class, then when I was trying to imitate the instructor. I learned that I just have to continue to move forward and not look back. Even though I am a little sad that I am not going to the hip hop fitness class anymore, I am so excited to attend my next fitness class-ZUMBA…..
Weight loss is a journey that is ever changing, and that somethings on this journey I can control but somethings may fall out of my control and that is okay. As long as I continue to move forward I will reach my weight loss goal (life goals). Please continue to travel with me on this up and down journey, as I continue to step out of my comfort zone. Please share your own personal journey. Until next time keep moving forward…….
