Dealing with change..
<< That’s my inspiration right there in the back seat.
So whats the hardest thing you’ve dealt with so far in your life?
A time when you may have been left to fend for yourself? Or
When your reality is turned on it’s head?
When what you thought exists, all of a sudden, no longer exists.
Getting ‘tough’ to these situations, I’ve come to realise IS the reason I subconsciously put myself in uncomfortable situations. You know, to build up resistance just in case the unspeakable, the unpredictable, the unlikely (although I’m not really one to spend much time guessing what’s going to happen in the future. I’d prefer to choose it myself), ever happens..
But this tough-ness thing. Well people have asked me how did I get so ‘tough’ (I’m not saying I am tough, because I don’t personally feel tough. Actually I feel too young to even be talking about the topic, but anyway.)
People have asked me in the past, how did you Handle that…?
The becoming a single mum thing.
The not working much, thing, to having to provide for yourself, thing.. or choosing to provide for yourself.
And being so relaxed etc.. or appear to ‘handle’ it all.
And I don’t have an answer. (By the way I am not relaxed… as those close to me will attest.)
But upon reflection, and yeeaaars after having my reality stripped from me, is that the situation did me a huge favour.
After a very painful period, of course.
I now expect nothing to remain the same, which let’s face it.. is one of the only certainties in life.
Uncertainty.
The strength and courage with which you face and deal with situations is the only real armour you have to deal with change.
Change is definitely going to happen and you can be the cause of it, or you can learn to react to situations that are thrown upon you and then you change, while kicking, screaming and crying about it, or you can react with grace and smoothly change course, the choice is always ours.
(I do believe a good cry is MORE than necessary though to process things faster.)
What I do know is that the pain serves a reason.
Somewhere in the future, there will come a time when you look back and say thank god it happened that way.
You will, trust me.
I don’t have more words of wisdom about this topic, in fact I don’t even feel experienced in life enough to be offering words of wisdom on the topic, it’s just that people ask.
I’ll tell you what I do know though… which I have my mum to thank for.
That is – ‘everything will be alright’. Always. It always is.
The choice of how full you see the glass is always yours and tomorrow is another day. You and I will be more than O.K. That’s a fact.
And oh – While I have your attention – I forgot to tell you guys last week about the release of my new book. ‘Making You – Mind Mastery for Fast Fat Loss’.
