To increase your capacity for success and overcome challenges, you have to start by embracing them. Just like building physical strength through exercise, tasks that once seemed intimidating will become more manageable over time. If you're striving for average goals, even minor setbacks can feel enormous. But, setting audacious, big goals can make current challenges seem insignificant by comparison. Remember that the size of your challenges is directly related to the size of your goals.
