Life is about learning lessons. Even if we are no longer in an academic environment, the learning never stops..
When things are not going our way, roadblocks show up everywhere we look. Nothing is working and everything is struggle. This is the universe's way of telling us that there is a lesson for us to learn and until we do so, the situation will become more and more painful.
When we start to pay attention to what is happening, learn the lesson and make the appropriate adjustments, the problem
will pass.
