Whatever your age happens to be, you must be proactive when you're dealt a bad hand in life. Take that energy (pain, fear, anger and uncertainty) and channel it into a passion to overcome the obstacle and give it all you've got.

What is the longest journey? To me, it is the one from here to enlightenment, to spiritual transformation. And without a costly misstep, or suffering, that journey can never even begin.

Are you willing to do what it takes to overcome what challenges you? When confronted with a difficult challenge, do you let your fears about coming up short stop you from taking any action at all?

Despite hardship and adversity, my personal belief is that nothing can replace the life experience and wisdom of 40 years on the planet. I am a big believer in the cliché that "life begins at 40."

Horses don't assume that just because something happened in the past it's going to happen again. They know that they don't know what's next. And because of that, they're ready for anything. And we can be too.
