Welcome reality

You can curse reality, you can hide from it, you can deny it and ignore it. Or you can accept it and work with it.

Reality is what it is, no matter how you feel about it. Yet reality also has the potential to be what you make of it.

Many aspects of reality can be extremely burdensome, yet they can also give you a solid, predictable framework in which to operate. What might at first seem to be an obstacle could end up providing essential support.

For example, there’s nothing more real and pervasive than the force of gravity. That reality makes it difficult to move a large rock, yet it also ensures the rock stays in place once you get it where you want it.

You cannot choose to abstain from reality. But you can choose to successfully deal with whatever the reality of life presents to you.

With thought, with effort, with purpose and persistence, transform obstacles into opportunities, limitations into advantages. Welcome reality and make it your friend by doing what’s necessary to make good and meaningful use of it.
