What’s the Game Plan?

This week’s game plan is inspired by an interview between Ryan Pineda and Myron Golden. They had an incredible conversation on creativity, resilience, and self-growth, and it sparked some thoughts that I wanted to share with you. Here are three powerful quotes on challenges and how they can shift the way we think about obstacles:

1. “You will never face an obstacle that’s bigger than you, only obstacles you THINK are bigger than you.”
   – Myron Golden

   I used to see obstacles as roadblocks, but I’ve learned to reframe them as opportunities for growth. When we believe in our ability to overcome, we realize the obstacle was never as big as it seemed.

2. “These obstacles cannot define me.”
   – Kobe Bryant

   Challenges can feel overwhelming, but they don’t define who we are. As Kobe reminded us, it’s essential not to let the small setbacks along our path make us feel defeated. Each attempt, successful or not, brings us closer to the person we’re meant to be.

3. “You cannot remove struggle from your life, but you can improve your ability to handle challenge.”
   – James Clear

   Struggles are part of the process, but our strength lies in how we handle them. Embracing the journey helps us become better, wiser, and more resilient.

I hope these words inspire you to look at obstacles with a fresh perspective this week. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s progress. As always, let’s aim to get just 1% better every day. Small wins are WINS!

Let me know your thoughts, and thanks for joining me on this journey! Until next week—let’s keep our purpose in motion.

As always,
Blessings, peace, love, and good vibes
