Spiritual Economics - The Adversity Gift

Conflict is the genesis of creation. It becomes a gift in our lives if we allow it to be a gift, to guide us, to nurture us, and to inspire us. Transformation and adaptation are our greatest human skills. Until we are tested, we don't know what we are made of. Consciousness creates circumstances. There are circumstances in our lives that we don't control, but we do control the way we interact with it. Consciousness is the key to all things which happen to us, and certainly the key to prosperity. It is about altering the inner states of mind that block the natural flow of life. Life isn't about finding ourselves---it's about creating ourselves. And we create ourselves through meeting adversity.
