Thomas Paine-“I love a man that can smile in trouble, can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflections.”

Growth is not always an enjoyable process, sometimes it hurts. If we take Mr. Paine’s advice and keep a positive attitude, grow during our difficulties and then take some time to reflect and learn from it, we will experience growth.

In my book “Mapping Your Journey” I state, “Everything that occurs to us over the course of living is extremely beneficial to our development, and every experience we encounter and endure helps to build the person that we evolve into.”

Growth Happens, make it positive!
