Don't Let Obstacles Get You Behind

"Obstacles are things a person sees when he takes his eyes off his goal" E. Joseph Cossman

"We are all faces with a series of opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations" Charles R. Swindoll

"If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it, I know I can achieve it" Jesse Jackson


A lot of times people complain that they are not getting to their goals is because they take their eyes off what they really want and create their own obstacles. The most successful people in the world never look as obstacles as obstacles. They are smart enough to find ways to avoid them or work around them.

Because the most successful people went through obstacles is a large part of the reason why their success was possible. They knew that they did not want to be in the position that they were born into or what they put themselves into and they were determined to find a way to get the reputation and lifestyle that they had a passion for. They saw people who achieved that lifestyle and used them as their inspiration for what they wanted to accomplish in their lives and the legacy that they wanted to leave behind.

For example many current professional basketball superstars used Michael Jordan as their inspiration to create their own legacy. The obstacles that they had to cross to get there only helped them become better and motivated them even more to be stronger, disciplined and more battle-tested on the route to their goals.

Once you are a strong person and you have your plan of success and your journey to what you want in life is in motion you will begin to not even notice your obstacles. This is demonstrated by the quote from E. Joseph Cossman, an American entrepreneur.

The people who fail on their journeys to their desired accomplishments will not learn to fly by those obstacles and they will let them interfere with what they really want and it will hinder or stop their success. The people who do meet their goals will begin to not even notice that the obstacles are there. He or she will be so focused that the obstacles will be very easy to get through that they will barely even be noticeable if there are even any more obstacles along the way or any little source of setback.

The third quote listed above by Jesse Jackson tells how people who are truly passionate about what they want to do with their lives and who are passionate about the legacy that they want to leave behind will be able to achieve it if they continue to believe in themselves and never give up. These are the people who do not take their eyes off of their passion for anything and forget about any obstacle that comes up if any do along their journey. They continue on their passion, believe in themselves and work around any so called obstacles or difficulties.

Remember that the most successful people are thankful for what they have and work with their circumstances instead of complain about them or use drugs or alcohol as a way to escape from their woes or disappointments. Successful people know what they want and capitalize on every bit of opportunity that they get and value what they have and any resources that they find along the way.

The truth is that every person on this earth has the same potential because we are all of equal human race. The people who are the most successful in life do not look at what many people think is not realistic as impossible situations.

We can all achieve fame in whatever we want and all it takes is hope, dedication, passion, a student mentality and curiosity. This is demonstrated in the quote from Charles R. Swindoll. Then we will realize that we can accomplish anything we want as long as we have passion for it and that nothing is impossible like a lot of people make some peoples' dreams out to be.

A lot of people think that it is impossible to become rich and famous but that is not true because it is something that many people disguise as an impossible situation. The people who become rich and famous did not disguise their success, passion and dream as an impossible situation. This is what separated them from the rest of the people who are not rich and famous.

The morale of the story is do not let obstacles like people telling you that your goals are impossible to accomplish by taking your eyes off your goals and taking their words for what they think is realistic. The successful people don't notice the obstacles that people put upon them because they are too busy keeping their eyes on their goals and are eager and motivated to prove their disbelievers wrong.


Stay focused and never take your eyes off what you want because we all human and anything is possible for anybody!
