Swimming In Waves Of Failure?


I've been taking a look at how I analyze 'failure' this week.

It's easy to let your emotions (and gut reactions) make something into more of a problem than it might be.

It's so easy to get stressed when you look at life through a cloud!

Over the last couple of years...I've began to look for the 'lesson' behind my so-called 'failures' (let's call them 'temporary defeats').

This week, for example, I found myself reacting positively to something that would have usually 'knocked me sideways'.

Because I am now a lot more philosophical about life...not much really 'gets to me' any more.

You see...YOU do have a CHOICE about what gets you down!

Sure...for a few minutes...it CAN seem like things have gone horribly wrong, but when you step back and take stock a little...you'll usually find that if you look at things with a 'clear head'...you'll be fine.

Life's events comes in waves...good days, bad days, average days...all following on from one another.

Now, that's not to say that you MUST have bad days, but, being realistic, most of us DO have the odd day where we just can't really be bothered.

Personally I have less and less of them because I don't let external events and people 'wind me up'.

I KNOW that I am in SOLE control of how I interpret my life...and so are YOU, too!
