I believe there are setbacks that are put into our path
to teach us something and move us in a different direction."
- Geri Jewell
I have had my fare share of losses and setbacks during 2019. Some of them very hurtful and I wish that I wouldn't have had to through them, but I did. As we all know.....no one is exempt from pain.
So what do we do when we have gotten knocked down by big losses and failures in our lives?
We learn.
I believe that there are no wrongs paths in life. Failure is nothing but something or someone trying to move us in a different direction from the path we were going on.
The failures and the losses are there to wake us up from sleep waking and not paying as close attention as we should have. We learn as much from our failure as we do our wins, in life. Actually I believe we learn more from our losses, if we are willing to look at the lesson that is presented to us in the from of pain.
Pain isn't given to us to make us suffer. It's given to us to wake up in our lives and take action.
Our lives are bigger than any one experience....so just RELAX. You can handle it!!!
Are you on a detour right now? Do you need to turn around?
Don't allow yourself to get thrown off for too long. If you have fallen off the horse, get back on it, as quickly as possible and start moving in a new direction.
One way to get through a challenge is to get still and then ask yourself.....what is the right next move or action that I need to take?
Let you head clear for a while after a loss, because it will feel like you have been in a car wreck and you can't think clearly at this time.
Be still and don't get overwhelmed by thinking about everything all at once. Only think of the next right action step and then take it.
If you don't jump darling, you will never fly.
Failure is only there to point us in a different direction.
Forgive the past.
Take responsibility and move forward.
Where in your own life have you been on a detour and need to take a brand new path?
