"There are no detours around obstacles."
There isn't a meaningful goal that can be achieved, without facing obstacles and hurdles. It's an inevitable part of life's road to success. The more you come to grips with this, the faster you'll get where you want to go!
Instead of seeing difficulties as the end of your dreams, see them as part of the journey. View obstacles as challenges, which, once overcome, will bring you closer to your destination. Refuse to be stopped – keep focusing on where you want to go.
When the going gets tough, remind yourself that snags build wisdom, perseverance and strength. With this outlook your frustrations will transform to motivations and success will come your way more quickly.

Do you realize that the life you are living is a result of your thoughts? Do you realize that the power of your thoughts is what brings positive or negative things to fruition in your life? If we could all just realize that if we seriously focus our minds on positive thoughts that our lives would be full, satisfying, and fruitful.
Have you heard of the Law of Attraction? This one simple law is actually the law of the universe that says 'if you focus on what you have and you are grateful every day for what you have, more will be attracted to you'! Are you grateful for what you have or are you constantly thinking and focusing on the things you do not have? Where attention goes, energy flows. When you focus on what you have you put out an energy that brings more of what you are grateful for. When you focus on what you do not have then those very things you have focused on become more. Say you are focused on the fact that you are broke, you are constantly worried about finances, and how you are going to pay your bills. You are thinking negatively therefore more of what you don't want will come into your life and you will never be free. Instead, think positively, be grateful for what you have, such as a roof over you head, a car that gets you from point A to point B, and maybe a loving relationship. Focus on what you can do to gain more income, what you can do to make your finances better, instead of what you cannot do. When you put your focus on what you have and what you can do then things begin to change. Have you heard of the saying 'when you change the things you look at, the things you look at change'?
Ponder that thought for a moment, try it out, you will begin to see light in your days and transformation in your life!
Open-ended experience
What you're able to do is not a function of what other people think of you or allow you to do. What you're able to do depends on what you expect of yourself and on what you choose to do with your time.
If you allow others to define you, then you enable them to control you. Choose instead to take full responsibility for your own life, and to do whatever is necessary to bring real fulfillment.
The world will throw all sorts of assumptions your way about what is possible and what is not possible. Look beyond the presumptions and limitations that others imagine, and connect with your own highest vision of how life can be.
The fact is, you can achieve what you set your mind and your efforts to achieve, with honor, integrity and joy. Life is an open-ended experience, and the results you achieve come from what you expect to achieve and what you work to achieve.
Certainly, you can be fruitfully guided by the past experiences in your own life and in the lives of others. Yet nothing about what has already been has to stand in the way of the best you can now be.
Focus less on what others think of you, and more on bringing your own unique beauty more fully to life. Make the commitment to live each moment with richness and authentic purpose, and show all of life how very much goodness you're able to give.
