- The Universe is constantly giving us gifts. They may not always look like gifts at first glance. However, when we look back at the hardships and challenges the Universe has thrown our way, we can see how they were necessary for change. Remember that rejection is redirection when you are going through frustrating times. And to look out for the gifts the Universe is sending your way.
- When you are following your passion is that there's always going to be resistance, or at least at some point. And it’s not about the resistance itself, but what you do with that resistance. You can decide to sit back and be a victim. But if you’re really passionate about what it is you are working towards, then you must take the anger you’re experiencing from this resistance and channel it into the creativity.
