As we journey through our personal and professional lives, there willinevitably be periods of incredible frustration and despair. During thosetough times, it will sometimes appear to us that we have lost everything,and that nothing and nobody could possibly motivate us to move onward inthe direction of our dreams. However, just like the woman who stumbledacross the guru, we are all holding with us a backpack of support thatcomes in many forms-it can be a simple email or text message fromsomeone we respect, inspiring blog posts, insightful books, helpful neighbors, supportive communities, and so much more. When the going gets tough-when we are feeling utterly down and discouraged-we need to remember...1.To trust the journey, even when we do not understand it. 2.To accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in the road ahead. 3.To start exactly where we are, use what we have, and do what we can,one step at a time. 4. To look for the blessings hidden in every struggle we face, and be willing to open our hearts and minds to them. 5. To recognize our backpack of support-our external sources of hope and motivation-before a random guru (or someone with far more crooked intentions).

TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST, TOUGH PEOPLE DO: ENDURANCE, JUST LIKE VIGILANCE, IS THE KEY FACTOR NEEDED DURING CHALLENGING TIMES
