In life, there will always be challenges to overcome. Difficult times to face. Events that are beyond your control. For those of you who are feeling frustrated or stressed today, it’s totally normal. Maybe you didn’t get the promotion at work you were hoping for. Maybe business is slow right now and you are wondering where all the customers are. Maybe you are having troubles with your personal relationships. No matter what, I’ve been there and I’m telling you to just hold on. Really hold on. Even if you feel like giving up. Even if you feel like there isn’t an end in sight. There is! I promise! Because you can’t get to the calm until you go through a storm.
We always think of “the calm before the storm” but it’s rare that we talk about the calm after the storm. We just know the storm will pass and naturally, the world will return to it’s normal state. Even though this fact couldn’t be more true, let’s not take that fact for granted. Let’s rejoice in knowing there is always a calm after the storm! Let’s celebrate that we made it through those trying times. That we made it to the other side, to our calm. I know it’s easier said than done. When you are engulfed in your own personal storm, it can feel impossible to see what good could ever possibly come out of it, never knowing when those dark clouds will part. Do not fret about the when, just know that there definitely is an end! There is the other side! You will make it through! Know that your calm is coming. All the steps you take to get through these storms are working! Your determination and perseverance through whatever difficult time you’re facing will pay off. The clouds always part and the sun will shine through once more!
Celebrate your triumphs, your big breaks, your successes with even more gusto, remembering all those storms you had to face to get there. Whenever life throws new challenges your way, just smile and know your calm is coming.
