It's all how you look at things, read this short poem, doing the rounds on FB:
Today was the absolute worst day ever And don‘t try to convince me that There's something good In every day Because, when you take a closer look This world is a pretty evil place. Even if Some goodness does shine through once in a while Satisfaction and happiness don‘t last And it's not true that It's all in the mind and heart Because True happiness can be obtained Only if one‘s surroundings are good It's not true that good exists I am sure you can agree that The reality Creates My attitude It's all beyond my control And you'll never in a million years hear me say that Today was a good day
Now read it from the bottom up.
Same words completely different meaning and it's how we should all think when things don't look good or seem to be heading in the wrong direction, maybe you simply need to look and think through things again as there might be some positives we simply can't see them because we aren't looking at them from the right perspective.
- Nobody has ever learnt anything important from happiness and success; problems make us grow - Consult your plan, not your feelings - If you haven't set goals, how can you expect to achieve anything?
