Buy some light weight baggage! It makes the load much easier to carry. Keep "stuff" out of it that does not belong there. I am great at "hoarding" things and that makes life that much more difficult. Do not look at blockages as stumbling stones. They really are challenges, sort of like trying to put a 1,000 piece puzzle together ... all by yourself. When you get the puzzle done, it usually reveals a beautiful picture that you can be proud of because you did by yourself. Sucesses matter a great deal only when they mean something to YOU!
