Go as far as you can go. When you get there, you’ll be able to see farther. Thomas Carlyle.

Of the many traits successful people exhibit, one of the most helpful is the ability to adapt to the unexpected and the new.

They have learned, through trial and error, that success doesn’t come over night.They know there are no quick fixes. No short cuts.

There is just hard work, consistency, generosity of spirit, transparency and an ever present willingness to adapt to change.

They know that the road to success, to a large extent, depends on a high degree of flexibility, humility and courage.

On top of everything everything else, they have an over-riding belief in themselves and that when faced with a challenge they will prevail. They just keep on.

We all have the right to have doubts about our task and even abandon it occasionally; the one thing we mustn’t do is to forget it. The Fifth Mountain, Paulo Coelho.

It has been a rough couple of years, challenging in so many ways.

The pandemic isn’t over quite yet, but as we get beyond the worst of it, the conundrum facing many is whether to just give full throttle to their current activities or, perhaps, pause for a deep rethink about the arc of their lives and what we doing with our time here.

Big thoughts, I know, but that’s what a pandemic brings with it. Everything has changed. As we begin to adjust to the new realities, there isn’t a better time than now to refresh and, if necessary, repurpose our lives:

All with the aim of staying relevant, engaged and endeavouring to create more peace and balance in our lives.

That means never giving up on yourself, doubling down and turning a blind eye to all the craziness to which we are being constantly subjected.

It means standing up for what you know and believe to be right, regardless of the wave of dishonesty, disinformation and outright lies flooding many of the social media platforms:

Ever mindful of Mahatma Gandhi’s admonition that even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.

Obstacles are things that a person sees when he takes his eyes off the goal. Mahatma Gandhi

In spite of the challenges we all are facing, there remains a small community of  warriors, women who, regardless of what life throws at them or where where they currently are on their journey, are not content to rest on their laurels.

Life is changing.

So is the work place. The very idea of work is changing. There is no safe middle ground.

Still these warriors they press on, saying yes when the majority says no;

ever mindful of one of life’s maxims that if you think you still can, you can; if you think you can’t, you can’t.

Hmmm…
