Podcast: The Keys Were in my Pocket

EPISODE 217

Let me share another true story with you.

A painful one.

A couple of years ago, as I was closing my car door with my left hand in the parking lot a local business, I got distracted and I slammed the car door with my left hand on all four of my fingers on my right hand, trapping all four of my fingers on my right hand in between the car door and the car body, with the car door locked.

Ouch!

It was immediately extremely painful and was an instance of adversity in my own life.

Sometimes a situation in your own your life “slams the door” on you, causing you unexpected pain or an obstacle that leaves you momentarily trapped or is a setback in your life.

You feel your access to progress in your own life is blocked by a locked door.

When you find yourself in such a situation in your own life, how can you pickup your keys and unlock the door that is blocking you?

Life will slam doors on you from time-to-time. You always have the keys in own pocket to unlock such doors. You my drop your own keys. Even in such a situation when you do, you can bend down, pick them up, unlock that door and keep going and create a positive impact in your own life.
