Our obstacles are opportunities to grow.

Overcome Emotional Obstacles

Thereโ€™s so many times where we focus on what society tells us will make us happy, and thatโ€™s all we chase. Money, a nice car, a house, and material objects that show off our โ€œsuccessโ€.

We always end up overlooking ourselves. You avoid exercising until the doctor says you have to.  Iโ€™m sure youโ€™ve experienced it plenty. You ignore your stress at work until you just canโ€™t take it anymore.

Ultimately your emotional state should take a priority. Without it, you canโ€™t be at your best. At the end of the day, happiness is an emotion. All of the material items in the world canโ€™t get you there.

Thatโ€™s why I wanted to do a mashup this week on overcoming emotional obstacles from some of the masters: Emily Skye, Josh Shipp, Rupi Kaur and Joshua Millburn.
