Every day offers us a new opportunity to become more adept at the elusive art of enjoying life. And what about the days when it seems to be, not so much elusive, as impossible? That's when we are simply being invited to learn the greatest lessons and master the trickiest skills. Success, is entirely a matter of trusting that this is true and engaging constructively with daunting challenges. Remember today, that nobody can take happiness away from us but we can deprive ourselves of it, if we give into fears and doubts.'The trouble with those people, is that they fail to take this into account.' 'That organisation might be much more successful if it changed the way it did X or Y.' How often do we hear such things? And how often do we say them? It is always easy for people who are far removed from the difficulties of carrying out an operation, to proffer an opinion. But if others really knew what you were up against, they would not judge you so harshly. And if you can now show similar sympathy, what you have to say will be much more easily heard.
