I want it MY WAY!!

Sometimes things don't happen the way you'd hope or you simply don't get your way.
Guess what?? It's not the end of the world!!!

If there is one thing I learned this year, it's that life keeps moving. So while you sit around and boohoo and throw yourself a pity party, life outside of you is moving forward. If you are like me, you have spent many years throwing yourself the most elaborate pity party's with no results. And after years and years of partying you come to a time in your life when you realize that this is unacceptable behavior and frankly, its not helping the situation. So I suggest that you make a Conscious Change from this day forward. "Easier said then done" you say, read on.

Whatever situation that forced you to invite those around you into this pity party here are a few things I would ask you to do first.
  • Stop what your doing or thinking about and Breathe (Deeply, otherwise it doesn't count)
  • If the situation is out of your control then worry no more, Relax and move on

"How do I move on" you ask, well start by going to your HAPPY PLACE (mentally).

  • What makes you smile or laugh
  • What inspires or motivates you
  • Your Mantra, Scripture, or Motto

Do these things until you physically feel calm and de-stressed. Then Move forward to something more positive.

If you feel like this situation is something that has to be resolved then only tackle it when you feel like you can emotionally and physically handle it (it could be in an hour, a day or even a year). Take your time.

A small note: sometimes when you don't get your way a better or new way opens up for you.

Negativity blocks creativity while Positivity creates opportunity.

Make the Conscious Change!
