A sudden set back doesn't need to destroy your business

This past month has been really tough one for me. At the end of April I suffered a major back injury. This put me down for the count for several weeks and I am just now being able to walk around and get to my computer. In spite of it all I managed to hobble down and do a few blogs and also keep up with some of my wealthy affiliate courses. The interesting part of all this was in retrospect to think back of all the times in my life when I let a setback give me a permanent crush so that I was not able to pick myself up and get going again.
This has all changed now. I'm finding that there are many people in the very same boat as myself and that boat becomes very crowded at times. There's a book written by a Christian about how to follow God and what to do in your life and it recounts the story of Simon Peter and how he stepped out of the boat to meet Christ but when his faith faltered he fell. We all have to know that if we want to walk on water we have to get out of the boat. We have to find the thing that's holding us back. Discover the fear that's keeping us in the boat. Discover what is holding us back from success. Conquer that and step out of the boat. Face our fears; face our drawbacks; find our faith and go with it. We have to learn to trust and learn especially in ourselves.
Trust in yourself trust in your trust in God and trust in your goals. You will succeed no matter what stands in your way if you want this bad enough.
My thanks to the WAcommunity for all the good tips blogs and support. Even though I have not had a chance to spend the time during the past month I hope that will change soon. Blessings to you all.
