When Things Go Wrong

When Things Go Wrong

In life, every trial will test us.  And when everything goes haywire, the temptation to quit is quite strong.  BUT, for those who press on, people get a chance to see WHO you really are WHEN everything ISN'T going your way.  That ability to keep your head and move forward is priceless.  There is always someone watching HOW you handle yourself WHEN THINGS GO WRONG💴💷💵

Which reminds me of Nancy Solari, the legally blind CEO of Living Full Out and a popular author and motivational speaker.  And in one of her shared experiences, she says that although we do face occasional setbacks, each day is the result of 'INTENSE PLANNING', starting from her guide dog to the software and tools she would use.  All these despite the fact that she even experienced very extreme complications of her vision.  YET, she hurdled all those challenges by keeping close to her mantras📗📙📘

Lifting from researches, most of those studies focus on a core list of mantras.  Primero, remember that THIS TOO SHALL PASS.  Sometimes, life's rough patches feel like they're going to last forever.  BUT the fact is, whether you're dealing with work-related issues, family problems, or other stressful situations, VERY FEW PROBLEMS, if at all, last for a lifetime💎💎💎

Segundo, let us NOT forget that SOME THINGS ARE GOING RIGHT.  Indeed, when things are going WRONG, it's hard to recognize what is going RIGHT.  It's so easy to screen out the GOOD things and only focus on the BAD things.  Do remind yourself that some things are going RIGHT  Purposely look for the positive, even if it is something very small.  Tercero, remember that I HAVE "SOME" CONTROL.  One of the most important things to remember is that you have "SOME CONTROL" of the situation.  Even if you AREN'T in complete CONTROL of the situation, one thing you can always CONTROL is your attitude and reaction.  Focus on managing WHAT is within your CONTROL❗❗❗

Cuarto, always remember that MUCH OF THIS WON'T MATTER IN A FEW YEARS.  This truism stands out through the years and it can never be rebutted.  WHY?  Because the best secret out there is that TIME is our best ALLY.  TIME will give you that chance to 'LEASE FOR A NEW LIFE', that second chance to pick up the pieces [sometimes from the rubble].  In truth and in fact, MOST of the problems we worry about today WON'T actually matter five years from now.  Let us remind ourselves that WHATEVER is going WRONG now is only a small fraction of your actual life.  And even if you're dealing with a major PROBLEM, like a loved one's illness, remember that a lot of GOOD things are likely to happen n the course of a year or two.  So, WHEN THINGS GO WRONG, it's NOT the end of the world, NOT AT ALL, dude❎❎❎
