Find the Alternative Path

Share on:

For every failure, there’s an alternative course of action. You just have to find it. When you come to a roadblock, take a detour.  – Mary Kay Ash

It would be so awesome if, when we set out to do something, nothing got in our way.  However, we live in the real world, and in the real world, things happen.  People get sick, materials aren’t available, cars break down, people let you down….the list is endless.  It’s what you DO with those things that get in your way that matters.  Do you let them derail you?  Do you give up?  You can’t view those “things” as permanent roadblocks.  They’re detours.  The challenge is finding the way around them.  It may take a bit more work, but won’t that make the end result that much sweeter in the end?  Never give up!  When those detours pop up, turn on your internal GPS system and figure out a way around them.  Who knows, your new route may turn out to be the better one in the end.
