The Greater The Obstacle The More Glory In Overcoming It

Life is a journey full of obstacles. Whether it's a physical, emotional, or mental challenge, we all face difficulties at some point in our lives. These obstacles can seem overwhelming and insurmountable, but it is in the process of overcoming them that our true strength and resilience shine through.

When we encounter hurdles in life, it's easy to feel defeated and discouraged. However, it is important to remember that the greater the obstacle, the greater the opportunity for growth and personal development. As the saying goes, "the greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it."

Think about the moments in your life when you faced a significant challenge. Maybe it was a health issue, a job loss, or a broken relationship. Whatever the obstacle may have been, you probably felt overwhelmed and uncertain about how to move forward. However, as you persevered and found a way to overcome the obstacle, you experienced a sense of accomplishment and pride. It is these moments that truly define us and build our character.

Overcoming obstacles is not easy, but it is what separates those who succeed from those who give up. The journey towards overcoming an obstacle is often filled with setbacks, failures, and doubts. However, it is during these moments that we discover our true strength and determination.

One of the most important lessons we can learn from overcoming obstacles is that failure is not the end. It is merely a stepping stone towards success. Each failure is an opportunity to learn and grow, to refine our approach and come back even stronger. The path to success is never a straight line, but rather a series of ups and downs. It is in these moments of struggle that we develop the resilience and perseverance necessary for long-term success.

Another crucial aspect of overcoming obstacles is the mindset we adopt. It is easy to fall into a pessimistic and defeatist mindset when faced with challenges. However, by shifting our perspective, we can transform obstacles into opportunities.

Instead of seeing obstacles as roadblocks, we can view them as stepping stones towards personal growth and achievement. Rather than dwelling on what we cannot control, we can focus on what we can do to overcome the obstacle at hand. This mindset shift empowers us to take control of our circumstances and find creative solutions.

Ultimately, the greater the obstacle, the more glory there is in overcoming it. When we face and conquer significant challenges, we prove to ourselves and the world that we are capable of great things. We become an inspiration to others, showing them that it is possible to overcome even the most daunting obstacles.

So, the next time life throws a major obstacle your way, remember that it is an opportunity for personal growth and triumph. Embrace the challenge, persevere through the difficulties, and come out on the other side stronger than ever. The greater the obstacle, the sweeter the victory.

It is in these moments of struggle that we discover our true potential and unlock the greatness within us. As we face and overcome obstacles, we gain confidence and build resilience. Our successes become a testament to our strength and determination, serving as a reminder that no obstacle is too big to conquer.

, the greater the obstacle, the more glory there is in overcoming it. Life is filled with challenges, but it is through facing and conquering these obstacles that we find our true greatness. Let us embrace the hurdles that come our way, knowing that each one brings us closer to our full potential. The greater the obstacle, the sweeter the victory.

Jean-Baptiste Poquelin is better known to us by his stage name of Molière. He was born in Paris, to a prosperous well-to-do family on 15th January 1622.

In 1631, his father purchased from the court of Louis XIII the posts of "valet of the King's chamber and keeper of carpets and upholstery" which Molière assumed in 1641. The benefits included only three months' work per annum for which he was paid 300 livres and also provided a number of lucrative contracts.

However in June 1643, at 21, Molière abandoned this for his first love; a career on the stage. He partnered with the actress Madeleine Béjart, to found the Illustre Théâtre at a cost of 630 livres.

Unfortunately despite their enthusiasm, effort and ambition the troupe went bankrupt in 1645.

Molière and Madeleine now began again and spent the next dozen years touring the provincial circuit. His journey back to the sacred land of Parisian theatres was slow but by 1658 he performed in front of the King at the Louvre.

From this point Molière both wrote and acted in a large number of productions that caused both outrage and applause. His many attacks on social conventions, the church, hypocrisy and other areas whilst also writing a large number of comedies, farces, tragicomedies, comédie-ballets are the stuff of legend.

‘Tartuffe’, ‘The Misanthrope’, ‘The Miser’ and ‘The School for Wives’ are but some of his classics.

His death was as dramatic as his life. Molière suffered from pulmonary tuberculosis. One evening he collapsed on stage in a fit of coughing and haemorrhaging while performing in the last play he'd written, in which, ironically, he was playing the hypochondriac Argan, in ‘The Imaginary Invalid’.

Molière insisted on completing his performance.

Afterwards he collapsed again with another, larger haemorrhage and was taken home. Priests were sent for to administer the last rites. Two priests refused to visit. A third arrived too late. On 17th February 1673, Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, forever to be known as Molière, was pronounced dead in Paris. He was 51.
