Take Charge of Your Circumstances

Take Charge of Your Circumstances

“We can let circumstances rule us, or we can take

charge and rule our lives from within.”

Earl Nightingale 1921 - 1989, Self-Help Author,

Motivational Speaker     

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Take charge of your circumstances

 

You will seem to be living your life in continued state of changing circumstances . . . . Just as you seem to have one under control . . . . a new circumstance pops into your life.

 

Nothing is forever . . . . and everything is subject to change.

 

The person that can master their circumstances . . . . and put them into prospective will master their future.

 

In order to master your circumstances you have to look at them with an open mind . . . . Look at the circumstances from a prospective of how you can maximize the circumstances into positive conditions.

 

Approach your circumstances . . . . look for your best course of action . . . . Make a decision to change them . . .  to adapt . . . . to adjust . . . . or to eliminate the circumstances.

 

To take change of your circumstances . . . . will take flexibility in your thinking . . . . and an attitude of possibilities thinking. Each circumstance can offer unique opportunities . . . . It can also create challenges . . . . Your approach to the circumstance will be the key to unlocking its potential . . . .  or being overwhelmed by the circumstances.

I saw a realtor at burial site look around and hand several his business cards.

He got a listing from the family.

It drives me nuts when folks blame their circumstances for the destination. So not true. they are roadblocks to see how bad you want your goals

Tomorrow I will be putting my ability to deal with difficult circumstances to the test. I know I will get through it, and probably retain my good disposition...at least it will appear that way on the outside.

You'll pass that test Debbie Laity.  You'll crush it and act as though it was no big deal.

  So many people in the divorce part of our practice want someone else to figure things out...give them direction...take over...it is a strengthening process to rebuild a life.

Hi Lou: The only constant in this world is change. We either adapt, resist, or change with it.

Thank you for the inspiration.

Lou, I have a "bumper sticker" if you will that Ron and Alexandra Seigel sent me long ago, it says, Things are Always Working Out for Me. 

I have it on my dash and read it often as it reflects back to me while driving. 

Believe and you will Receive...so accept, go with the flow, know that if you stay pliant, you won't be ridged and unchangeable and it will come more easily!

"Each circumstance can offer unique opportunities"
