The Simple Shift That Will Help You Overcome Any Setback
KEEP YOUR LIGHT ON
Imagine a lighthouse standing tall on the coastline. The sky is dark, the waves crash with relentless force, and the wind howls in fury. The storm does everything in its power to consume, to overwhelm.
But the lighthouse? It does what it was built to do.
It doesn’t fight the wind. It doesn’t beg the waves to calm. It doesn’t question its place on the shore.
It simply shines.
And in doing so, it becomes something greater than the storm.
Now, take a moment and realize—you are that lighthouse.
Life will bring chaos. It will bring uncertainty. It will test you in ways you never saw coming. The external world will always have its storms. The question is, will you let them in?
A boat doesn’t sink because of the water around it—it sinks when the water gets inside. The same is true for you. The struggles you face? They only define you if you allow them to. The critics, the doubts, the setbacks? They hold no power unless you give it to them.
This is where the real challenge begins—can you stand firm and keep your light on?
When everything feels uncertain… will you keep your light on?
When people let you down… will you keep your light on?
When you make mistakes or disappoint yourself… will you keep your light on?
When fear whispers that you’re not enough… will you keep your light on?
Because somewhere out there, someone is lost at sea. They are surrounded by darkness, battered by waves, searching for a sign that they can make it through. And then they see it—a single glow piercing through the night.
Your light.
Not because you had all the answers. Not because life was easy or the path was clear. But because, despite it all, you showed up anyway. You stood tall when the storm was at its worst. You believed in yourself when the world gave you every reason not to.
And that? That changes everything.
Because storms don’t last forever. The wind dies down, the waves retreat, and the sun eventually rises. And when it does, you’ll still be standing—unshaken, unwavering, stronger than before.
No matter what comes your way, keep your light on.
Because someone, somewhere, needs to see it.
