HE lyrics to Tammi Terrell’s
song ‘Ain’t no mountain high
enough…ain’t no river wide
enough to keep me from get-
ting to you,’ kept playing in
my head over and over again
as I approached Princess
Dina Mired of Jordan recently for an exclusive
interview.
To me, every encounter presents a different
scenario and is a learning curve to make me
stronger. Learning may begin in the classroom,
but it only takes root when applied in real life.
The kinds of experiences that strengthen us
are experiences that challenge us. Just like the
body must be taxed to develop mental muscle.
In everyday life, challenging experiences are not
hard to come by. Our rudimentary efforts to seek
pleasure and avoid pain don’t take us very far.
Real life challenges, frustrates, flummoxes and
disappoints us.
But if we are to strengthen our minds, we
must turn towards them to give ourselves the
opportunity to grow into the kind of people that
can deal with challenging experiences.
If we can stick with working at something
that is potentially good for us – we give ourselves
the chance to have double gain. Not only do we
receive the benefit of that particular investment,
we develop a greater capacity to be a long-term
investor.
