So, I know all the things that I need
to do everyday to be the best I can be. And if I do them I know I will
get the results that I want. BUT, that isn't always the case in daily
life. We get setbacks that just hit us smack in the face. The
setbacks throw us off. We feel like we are right back where we started
before we were all "gun ho" on tacking life and taking control of our
happiness. Here's how I see how to get over the setbacks that will keep
happening in life no matter how good you think you got it.
1. Dig dip into your silence and pull
out some courage to move on. It's beyond hard and beyond ourselves
sometimes but you have to. Otherwise you will get sucked into the vortex
of self defeating conversation. You are your thoughts good and bad.
So try and make the good out way the bad. That is survival tactics
101.
2. Be positive about what you already
have today. Instead of counting all of what you want. Why not just
be happy that you have what you have and you have to "work"to get
what you want. Make sure that what you are hungering for will have a positive
affect on another persons life. A contribution to your fellow man.
That is what we are on this earth to do. We sometimes get lost in
ourselves that we forget the purpose of our daily efforts.
3. Find three things that you feel
you have improved on with yourself that help you be a better friend, role
model, teacher or whatever it is in your world that makes you a contributing
figure in your current life.
4. Dig Deep to your soul for the
voice of reason and love for yourself. Once you start showing your self
some respect others will show you even more.
