Discipline in perception lets you clearly see the advantage and the proper course of action in every situation-without the pestilence of panic or fear.
Too often we react emotionally, get despondent, and lose our perspective.
We can learn to focus on what things really are.
We can choose to stop seeing the “problems” in front of us as problems.
Nothing makes us feel this way we choose to (or not to) give in to such feelings.
What matters most is not what the obstacle is, but how you see and react to them.
Abundance can be its own obstacle.īe fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful. We’re soft, entitled, and scared of conflict.
Many of our problems come from having too much.
Like oxygen to a fire, obstacles became fuel for the blaze that was their ambition.
Great individuals, like great companies, find a way to transform weakness into strength.
Instead of succumbing to obstacles with inaction, we need a method and a framework for understanding, appreciating, and acting upon the obstacles life throws at us.
But the responses they elicit are the same: Fear.
Every obstacle is unique to each of us.
Whatever we face, we have a choice: Will we be blocked by obstacles, or will we advance through and over them?.
Every obstacle is an opportunity to practice some virtue: patience, courage, humility, resourcefulness, reason, justice, or creativity.
The impediment to action advances actions. The mind adapts and converts to its own purposes the obstacle to our acting. Our actions may be impeded…but there can be no impeding our intentions or dispositions. But I pick and choose ideas to include at my discretion. The following book summary is a collection of my notes and highlights taken straight from the book.
