Take a moment every now and again to stop…clear your mind…let go of stress, tension, worry, insecurities…whatever else is bogging you down and holding you back. You might just find that with a clear mind you can approach challenges with more strength and flexibility than you ever thought possible.

Be flexible…
Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape. On the surface that seems like just a humorous quip; maybe it gives you a little chuckle.
