“Don’t wish it was easier, wish you were better. Don’t wish for less problems, wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge, wish for more wisdom.” – Jim Rohn

I’ve been listening to some Jim Rohn again. This quote of his has always been one of my favorites.

It’s easy to get stuck wishing away all of the difficulties of life.

To wish things were easier.

Jim would say the opportunity of life is to become something better through these difficulties.

When I’m feeling frustrated, I try to think of the fruits of the spirit verses – “the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.”

I figure that regardless of the situation those will see me through.

If I can just become the kind of person that has all of those, everything will turn out just fine.

Make it a great day.
