When life gets tough.

When life gets tough.

I found this article from www.lifehack.com . It was “13 things To Remember when life gets rough”.

I like what is, IS. Don’t resist change…..Either Accept it and let go of it or make yourself miserable by obsessing over it. Isn’t this so true….I am a fighter. I learned to be a fighter…I had no choice growing up bunt learn to be tough. When you have a violent situation like the one I grew up in, you become a fighter. A fighter definitely resists what is.

It’s a problem if you think it is. We definitely are our own worst enemy.

Don’t compare yourself to other. Teachers are moratoriums for this.

I am not a victim. I am a creator of my own experiences.

Understand and be grateful. This last year and the last few years I am more grateful for to everything. Especially when good things happens and when money matters get a little help.

Allow yourself to be happy and to experience joy. I have to find happy on little things, in simple things. Moment by moment.

Appreciate the moments. In the last few year in the middle of all this chaos I had to appreciate the moments. I appreciate the time I had with my dogs, Cupcake and Chocolate Chip and Cosmo Kitty. We got to spend a lot of quality time together. I appreciate time I spend with friends. I appreciate that I have a roof over my head, food to eat, and my family.

Be greatful from your fears. What’s more powerful that fear…..HOPE. My friend Pandora always hated her name. ( the box that opened and let out the worlds evils). She had a conversation with a priest on vacation and he told her the rest of the story of Pandora and her box. When the box was empty and you could see the bottom. What was left in the box…HOPE. that is why her mother named her Pandora Hope. She never knew the story of her name.

If you want things to change, start changing yourself.

There are no failures, only learning opportunities.

If you don’t get what you want, it just means something better is coming. I guess that why I like the song ” unanswered prayers”

Believe anything is possible. Look for those Godwinks.

Never give up.
