Open to new possibilities

I recently watched a movie/documentary about Temple Grandin... She was autistic from childhood.Though the doctors suggested institutionalization, her mother refused and pushed her through out her life to succeed and pursue her dreams. She went to school, college and received her Masters degree, wrote several articles published and designed several devices for more humane treatment of our livestock. she is now a speaker around the world on autism and how her mind works. Though it was so difficult at times with her mothers persistence patience and love she has made a difference in her world. She is truly amazing. I was inspired. One of her teachers told her to think of new experiences like a new door and if she chose to go through them it would open up a whole new world. She visually pictured a door when she felt afraid and challenged.
So are YOU open to new possibilities? Will you choose to walked through the door before you?
