I CAN EMBRACE THE CHALLENGE BEFORE ME.
We're going on a bear hunt
We're going to catch a big one,
I'm not scared
What a beautiful day!
Uh-uh!
Grass!
Long wavy grass.
We can't go over it.
We can't go under it.
Oh no!
We've got to go through it!
Swishy swashy! Swishy swashy! Swishy swashy!
Uh-uh!
A river!
A deep cold river.
We can't go over it.
We can't go under it.
Oh no!
We've got to go through it!
Splash splosh! Splash splosh! Splash splosh!
We’re Going on a Bear Hunt was one of my favorite stories to read to my kids when they were younger. I love the sentiment of this story. We can’t go over it, we can’t go under it. We’ve got to go through it! Life consistently presents us with road blocks. Those barriers could be seen as a negative or they can be seen as an opportunity. Barriers are simply a way to keep the weak people out. If you are willing to find a way past the barrier, it is a lot less crowded on the other side. For those who are willing to push through, finding a way to persevere in adversity, you are on the path to becoming elite. Take some time this week to identify a barrier and push through it. You might not be able to go over it, or under it, but you can surely go through it.
