Obstacles. They stand in our way. They frustrate us.
They keep us from our goals. And yet —
Sometimes those same obstacles strengthen our resolve,
force us to hone our skills, point us in another direction,
make the good times sweeter…
I’m not saying we should invite obstacles into our lives,
But perhaps we can take another perspective when they show up!

What are your obstacles?
What gifts could they be bringing?
What gifts have obstacles brought you in the past?
Where can they make you stronger?
What could you learn from them?
How could you turn one obstacle into a gift?

What would you do differently if your current obstacle was a gift?
