When we face challenges and painful experience in our lives, it’s crucial to remember Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim‘s teaching to, “Rejoice in the lesson of pain and hurt, it gives you strength, it gives you freedom.” Some people become bitter and wall off their hearts after being hurt by someone or certain situation that we face. But if we can find the courage to stand up tall and not give up, we can discover parts of ourselves we never knew existed. If we view every challenge as a hurdle instead of a stopping point, it can shake us awake and we have the opportunity to re-write the script of our future situations. We don’t have to be stuck. We can learn how to break patterns and have a new beginning to reach for our success and victory in all aspects of our lives.
