Life is filled with difficulty. It is the struggle that provides an avenue towards your greatness. No one before you and no one after you will ever reach their true potential without learning the lessons that this brutal life can instill.  Life does not happen to you, but rather for you.  Once you understand that these difficulties are inevitable and part of your journey to success, you’ll become less of a victim and more of an opportunist.You already possess everything you need to build a meaningful life. Start each day with an attitude of gratitude for all that you have.  Gratitude is the key that unlocks your heart and makes life meaningful. Get up each day and go after the things you want but never forget that you already have what you need.  It all comes down to your attitude and perspective.
