When 💩 hits the fan what do you do?

As adults we all go through LIFE obstacles. These obstacles may come in many forms. Obstacles such as, financial loss i.e. identity theft, job loss or job dissatisfaction, health problems, car repairs, home repairs, relationship issues, family issues, mental health issues etc. But how do you deal with this? Do you walk around angry? Or do you find a solution? What’s your mindset? How do you deal with life when things aren’t going your way?

Attitude

How do you approach life when things aren’t going your way? Your attitude is everything. One thing I learned over time is your attitude is like a magnet. Like attracts like. Stay positive. Though we all have days where being an adult SUCKS. I mean it can get horrible. Put on your hard hat and deal with life. The waves of life can take you on a real rollercoaster. Enjoy the ride. Your problems never really disappear they take on another form, if you run away from them. Focus on the outcome that you want. Though it may be hard to stare your problems in the face, it’s the only way you learn. Life is the greatest teacher if you pay attention. Life will give you clues before success or destruction. Pay attention, but don’t hide. Once again enjoy the ride. Your ride is what makes you unique. The toughest thing to do is to cherish the bad times because it hurts SOOOO MUCH! But we have to remember the balance and how life works. There is no hot without cold, no up without down, and no good without bad. It’s all the same.

What’s life without a little adventure or adversity?

Adversity builds character and makes you stronger.

Let’s use weights as an analogy. If you don’t lift you will not get stronger. If you don’t go through adversity you’ll never learn how to overcome. Everything is designed to help you become the person you want to be. You have to be willing to fight for what you want. The characteristics that you are building now are tools for the future you. Don’t fight it. Embody your experience. Make or find the solution. You will build strong characteristics and skills. Keep this in the back of your mind when you go through adverse situations.

Think & Reflect

Is your attitude helping you find a solution? If not what are you doing to change your attitude?

Steps to help

Keep a positive attitude

Find a positive outcome and focus on that solution.

Solitude= Solution (Listen to yourself)

Face your obstacles

Remember adverse situations are tools to use for a later experience.

Stay present and learn about yourself
