InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

The Pathway to Integrated Living
— Daily reminders for a conscious, connected life —

You woke up this morning with your purse magically filled with twenty-four hours. No one got more than you. No one got less. The question isn't whether you have enough time—it's what you'll do with the time you have. Will you spend it resenting what's hard, or will you approach your challenges the way you approach a game you love to play?
The focus for today is:
Each moment of time approaches us with infinite possibility, summoning us to compassion, understanding and well-being.
Today's message is inspired by Al Weatherhead, author of the book: The Power of Adversity: Tough Times Can Make You Stronger, Wiser, and Better
Al reminds us that all problems are solved the same way—through trial and error, over time. Whether it's a jigsaw puzzle or a shattered life, the process is the same. And just as we instinctively understand that the real fun in any game is in the playing, not just the winning, we can bring that same spirit to our adversities. No matter how tough your day has been, always go to bed believing that your cup of time will be refilled tonight.

RELATED BOOK: The Power of Adversity: Tough Times Can Make You Stronger, Wiser, and Better
Dynamic industrialist and major philanthropist Al Weatherhead says adversity is not a curse but a gift--and that when we embrace our problems we temper and empower ourselves to achieve unimagined success. With insight and compassion, Weatherhead helps us understand that the question we must ask ourselves when bowled over by life's troubles is not "Why me?" but instead, "Why not me?"
