Something Wonderful Comes from This
Someone shared with me this phrase as a way that she chooses to look at obstacles. "Something wonderful comes from this."
Rather than getting hassled by obstacles, she consciously looks for what good thing could come out of it. Almost invariably, something good does.
It's simply because of this: when you focus on the obstacle, your mind stops cold. It sees nothing beyond the obstacle.
When you hit an obstacle and look for something wonderful to come out of it, you lift your eyes up beyond the obstacle and start to see ways around it that you would never see otherwise.
Next time you face an obstacle, try it yourself. Look at the obstacle, but don't stop there. Look also for what wonderful thing can come out of it. You might be surprised at what all you find.
