Entrepreneur's - The Forge
The Finest Steel Has To Go Through The Hottest Fire
What is THE FORGE - forge is a type of hearth used for heating metals, or the workplace (smithy) where such a hearth is located. The forge is used by the smith to heat a piece of metal to a temperature where it becomes easier to shape by forging, or to the point where work hardening no longer occurs. The metal (known as the "workpiece") is transported to and from the forge using tongs, which are also used to hold the workpiece on the smithy's anvil while the smith works it with a hammer. Sometimes, such as when hardening steel or cooling the work so that it may be handled with bare hands, the workpiece is transported to the slack tub, which rapidly cools the workpiece in a large body of water. However, depending on the metal type, it may require an oil quench or a salt brine instead; many metals require more than plain water hardening. The slack tub also provides water to control the fire in the forge. - (Credit to Source Wikipedia.org)
The "Refiners Fire"
Vision Park Utah Business Park in Saratoga Springs, Utah. Business begins with an idea. You enter the refiner's fire of Entrepreneurship. This fire burns hot, and the high heat burns off the imperfections. This process makes the steel strong and resilient. You will look back and not be the same person when you began. Like the intense fire that transforms iron into steel, as we are faithful during the fiery trial of our faith, we will be refined and strengthened.
The refiner’s fire melts down a metal, such as gold or silver, for purification purposes. Once a metal is in its melted downstate, the metal's dross rises to the top and is then removed from the metal before it cools. A refiner’s fire does not destroy the metal; rather, it allows the junk within to come up so that it can be removed. A refiner’s fire does not consume, and it makes the metal better and more valuable. The refiner's fire will purify our hearts, determination, imperfections, afflictions, hardships, and shortcomings. In the refiners, fire impurities are burned away so that the dross within our hearts will rise to the surface and can then be removed, leaving the imperfection behind. Revealing through the process, courage, grit, resolve, innovation, and determination will be revealed in this humble trial process by fire. It a beautiful process.
Adversity
Discipline is the refining fire by which talent becomes ability. The soul of the warrior is refined through the daily practice of their art. "The great mentor is always looking for is a person who is willing to tap his genius, to put it through the refiner's fire, to do the hard work to develop it. Indeed, mentoring is the medieval art of alchemy- turning plan old human steel into hearts and minds of gold" - Oliver DeMille.
Personal struggles, individual sorrows, pains, tribulations, infirmities of every kind come to us all. If we approach adversity wisely, our hardest times can be the greatest growth, which can turn into the greatest happiness, deep introspection, and internal growth. It's not the creation of adversity, not the adversity itself, that determines how your life story will develop. Difficulties can be a valuable tool for learning, growth, and character building. Most often, you will look back, and these times will be a blessing. "A happy life consists not the absence but in the mastery of hardships." - Helen Keller.
