To Grow, Seek Challenge..

There is a story about a man who found a cocoon for a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared, he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through the little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared stuck. The man decided to help the butterfly and with a pair of scissors he cut open the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily. Something was strange. The butterfly had a swollen body and shriveled wings. The man watched the butterfly expecting it to take on its correct proportions. But nothing changed.

The butterfly stayed the same. It was never able to fly. In his kindness and haste the man did not realize that the butterfly's struggle to get through the small opening of the cocoon is nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would grow and become ready to fly.

Like a butterfly needs to struggle through its cocoon so that it can grow normally and become able to fly, we all need to be challenged through our jobs so that we can learn, develop, and grow in our careers. That is why you must always appreciate, and even seek challenge.
