Today’s blog is on Overcoming Frustration.
What Is Frustration?
Frustration is the gap between where you are and where you thing you are, which may not necessarily be where you should be.
Your thoughts and emotions start in your head. When you are first learning and growing in your personal development you need to be doing those actions that will replace your old negative thought patterns and behaviors to those that will support your goals of success. There are no short cuts to your developing those daily habits and traits that will bring about your goals of success. The sooner you listen to successful leaders and take action on what they teach for success the sooner you will begin to have the success they have.
Actions To Overcoming Frustration
Controlling your thoughts and emotions is key to overcoming frustration. This starts with the daily morning actions of reading or listening to material that will inspire and teach you leadership skills, listing those things you are grateful for, visualizing the person and the lifestyle you want, and so on. You choose your thoughts so choose those that serve you.
You will not become the person you need to become to have the dream life you want without resistance.
The higher your climb the greater your resistance.
The greater the resistance, the greater the reward when you get there.
Resistance Is The Vehicle For Growth

Resistance for growth is a universal principle. You must learn and grow through the principle being taught or you will be stuck until you do.
Resistance is the vehicle that will cause you to grow. When you feel frustration you are thinking that the task of growth should be easier. However, when you go into a gym for the first time you know that you cannot start off benching the heavy weights that the seasoned people in the gym are doing. You must start with low weights and work your way up as your muscles develop in strength and endurance.
If you went to college you know that you had to have a certain level of education to take the classes you enrolled into. You also knew that to complain about the course would not serve you. You had to study to learn the requirements of the course, show up for class and do well on exams to then complete the course.
The same principles apply to your home business. The world will not reward you without your working for your goals and ambitions. You can’t get something for nothing.
Change Your Perspective In Overcoming Frustration
When dealing with frustration, once you feel frustrated step back and ask yourself what do your frustrations mean? Identify the underlying cause of your frustration. Your frustrations are your reaction to resistance and telling you what you have to do next to get to where you want. Do you need to hire out a task? Do you need to take a class or training to get the skills for the next level?
Change your perspective when you meet resistance by having a “solution” mindset. Having a solutions mindset will empower you and streamline your growth. As you grow so will your business. As you become a problem solver and take action to overcome and grow through the obstacles you must face in building your home business you will be able to teach others this same principle.
Use The Success Formula To Grow Through Resistance
Overcoming frustration and growing through resistance comes back to the success formula: (1) Invest in yourself in time and money to learn and grow, (2) Implement and take action on those things you have learned, (3) Teach what you have learned to others, (4) Work Hard and (5) Repeat, repeat, repeat.
Resistance is the mechanism required to help you achieve your goals and become the person you want to become to have the life you want.
