Too Many Ladders? by Robin J Elliott
Most people start at ladder number one and they climb a few rungs but then things get difficult – there’s wet paint or a missing rung, for instance, so they get down and rush off to the next ladder. After a few rungs, they get scared because this ladder sways, so they climb back down and rush off to ladder number three. Time is passing, but they keep on trying a new ladder.

The 21st Century Model For Achievement!
When it comes to achievement, I think a lot of people miss the fact that it's an uphill process. You have to climb the mountain first before you reach the peak. It's a journey that almost always involves obstacles. And, it involves doing what it takes to overcome the obstacles. So what's all the confusion? Why are there so many people proclaiming it's just not meant to be? Perhaps they don't understand exactly what uphill means? It's a metaphor for the obstacles and challenges that stand between you and a successful outcome. Listen closely and you'll often hear people who believe such roadblocks are not supposed to happen.
