Most people just stomp through life with their heads down, not really looking at where they're going or what's around them, trying to knock down any barriers by plowing through them. Especially us Americans; we pride ourselves on being hard workers. But that wears a person out very quickly. They'll eventually reach a barrier than can't knock down, no matter how hard they push. In fact, pushing harder seems to make the wall even stronger.

How about instead of trying to knock down that proverbial brick wall, you look for a window to climb through?

I guess that's what I'm trying to do. Trying to find a window and then showing everyone else how to climb through it.
