Today is "Meaningful Challenge Day!"
"Make that first step toward changing something in your life a meaningful challenge. One that pushes your very boundaries, but doesn't push you over the edge!" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
The Quote in the Picture Today Reads: "Change Comes through Challenge!" — Unknown Author
When bad times come, it's your motivation and perseverance that will keep you going until they pass. Here are some powerful thoughts to help you push through.
"Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful." — Joshua J. Marine
"When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." — Viktor Frankl
"Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional." — Roger Crawford
"When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready. The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back." — Paulo Coelho
"If you are facing a new challenge or being asked to do something that you have never done before don’t be afraid to step out. You have more capability than you think you do but you will never see it unless you place a demand on yourself for more." — Joyce Meyer

To go with the previous first step- I force myself to make that first step and push myself into things outside my comfort zone. I know they won't last forever, but most times I discover I have something to offer. If I am not happy with the result, I try to understand why. No pain, no gain in other words. Great thought to start off today COL Mikel J. Burroughs

Maj Marty Hogan You're "spot on" again this morning my friend. No pain, no gain is a great motto to follow and we all need to push ourselves in all of our endeavors, whether its just a job, a goal, our relationships, and personal lives. Have a great day Marty and never let up my friend - keep on keeping on!

I hear you brother - there are a lot of us that live on the edge, maybe it was our past occupation, who knows? You have a great day LTC Greg Henning

One quote on change that I like is one by Tolstoy.
"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.”
If I can change my own self, I might be able to change the world for the better.
