It navigates us through moments of creative block and compels us to seek out innovative ideas. If we welcome the presence of Divine Discontent we allow it to be the incentive that drives us towards our creative potential.theartofmind.wordpress.com/.../the-gift-of-divine-discontent/When people talk of a challenge as being a burden I see it as a opportunity for growth / test of character... and that ultimately one will rise above/ beyond.When painting or creating music... creating anything... and reaching to that point where one is happy with the result.. that striving for something more/ something better I think we should... settle into and embrace... this process / unfoldingand things are much easier / fun...as one no longer sees a problem but an opportunity to grow / excelAlso the notion of failure..in terms of a challenge... again there is no failure, only learning.
