Who Said Life Would Be Easy?
This morning I received an email from my wife Laurie with my horoscope for the day. It read as follows: 
”Nobody ever said it was going to be easy. Okay, maybe somebody did say that. But they were wrong, and if you believed them, you could be in for a little wake-up call. But don’t worry — if things were easy, life would be so boring! It’s much better this way. You’ll be much more energized and engaged, and that will make the whole prospect more interesting.”
I have to say, “I love it!” I wouldn’t want my life to be anyway else. Easy is boring.
Life Is Perfect Just The Way It Is
Now I am not saying that by perfect I mean that life always goes as planned for me. There is a saying that goes like this; “If you want to make God laugh, tell God your plans.” Life is perfect just the way it is because every experience along my path, whether it went smoothly or was filled with challenges brought me to where I am now. Every challenge I faced made me a better person for it and it did not matter whether the end result was as I expected because whatever the outcome I received valuable lessons and experiences.
Sometimes Help Is All You Need
Why are there so many people who believe whenever life is not easy for them they have to figure it out all on their 
own.Why would they put themselves and their families through so much pain and frustration? Why not ask for help? It is foolish to think some people wouldn’t use the experience and knowledge available to them today, which can be found through life coaches, business coaches, mentors, spiritual advisors, books and the internet. I often look to my mentors and coaches for help because it just makes sense. Whatever my situation is, chances are that someone else has been there before, so I want to use that information to my benefit. Knowing there is always help when I need it lets me look at life as a game I enjoy playing, to get to the next level.

Wow, great point Slawek! There are so many coaches out there, business coaches, life coaches, mentors and trainers who are available to help us through times when life seems to throw us challenges.
Its too easy to hang our heads and sulk and blame somebody else for our troubles. It takes real courage and strength to seek out and ask for help. And as you said, that is what can transform the rough times into positive growth and learning experiences. And, when you have been able to sccessfully deal with challenges how knows, it may be you next time, that some one comes to for help.
Thanks for sharing!
