It’s always coming. It’s always coming tomorrow.
Because nothing happens the same way twice. You learn some things along the way and that makes you better equipped to face the next challenge…but you can’t avoid it all together. That is, the next challenge you’re going to face.
Every day is a come back. Every day you have to re-learn how it goes.
You can’t copy and paste.
Experience doesn’t remove the challenges, it just changes your perspective and hopefully your efficiency in hurdling them.
The point is not to not have a challenge coming tomorrow. The point is developing an attitude and posture that doesn’t get defeated by knowing there’s another challenge.
In the land of dreamers, the planner is king.
BUT…in the land of planners, the one who recovers is king.
Plans are a great, necessary process, and we base them largely on what we know, the flow of how we believe things will, could, should go. As we should.
But remember the reality is things will not go the way you plan. They never do. They either go better or worse.
And there in lies a large part of the challenge that renews virtually every day.
Enjoy your victory today. The next challenge is coming tomorrow.
