We all have great days and we all have those days where waking up on the wrong side of the bed is an understatement. Despite how much planning we do to make sure things go smoothly, we begin to ask if there was ever a point in planning to begin with. If you find yourself in the depth of the bad 24. Then it's important to know that you can change the way you look at those hours and virtually transform your life.
Some call it "looking on the brighter side." I call it "channeling." See, if you begin to channel your frustration and focus on something else with that much intensity your rain can turn into sunshine. No, it's not going to change what happened but it can change what you do in the future. What you've learned about the situation and how you can better prepare yourself for success.
Though we may have an "a", "b", or "c" to our plan, there is no way of predicting "d." Let's say your running late for work and you've just entered morning traffic. Rats! Your not going to change the fact that your late but you can either use that time obsessing over how much traffic there is, or educating yourself on possible routes to take should you find yourself running late again.
Or if you've missed a deadline. Your not going to change the fact that your time has passed. But you can better manage your time in the future so that you can make sure you are well within the time frame.
Of course, there are other situations we find ourselves in that are not so easy turn away from and do require time and energy to fix. Those situations are better spent deciding the best way to seek support and the best way to transition our lives so that our finances and emotional structures don't become unstable.
Whichever season life decides blow into your life, know that your next move can always be a smarter one.
