Description

In this week’s Spiritual Perspective, we explore what I call The Constantinople Effect—the tendency to give up too soon when the path forward feels “too hard,” and to rationalize it with phrases like, maybe it’s just not meant to be.

Drawing from the dramatic fall of Constantinople, we’ll look at what happens when conventional efforts aren’t enough—and why sometimes the only way through is to consider the “impossible.” Just as the Ottoman army hauled seventy massive warships over land to outflank the city’s defenses, we, too, may need to challenge our assumptions about what’s possible in order to reclaim neglected areas of our lives.

The paradigm shift here is clear: difficulty is not a sign to quit—it’s often proof you’re on the right path. Spiritual growth isn’t about waiting for the universe to fix things; it’s about expanding your sense of possibility and aligning with the courageous actions that transformation demands.
