Understanding and Eliminating Frustration

When life gets in the way, do you get frustrated about being blocked?  

I learned a long time ago that getting blocked is an everyday occurrence. The bigger my goals, the more blocks would arrive. I could either live with endless frustrations or find a better way. It came down to understanding:

1) Blocks have nothing to do with who you are. Self-inflicted or caused by others, they still have nothing to do with you as a person. 

2) If you want something, there is always a way to get it. Always. You may not like the path. Your ego may get in the way. It may scare you. There is still a way to get what you want.

3) Removing blocks from your life takes nothing more than commitment and action. That’s called passion. No block can stand up to passion. 

The next time frustration gets in your way, blow it off and keep moving. There is always a way to get what you want
