Greetings all,
Today I woke up feeling fine and ready to face what the day had instore for me, and almost immediately I was frustrated. Now often you will hear me say that this life has a way of beating on us day after day, and this is true but we have to learn to move through it quickly. The reason we must move through this quickly is because if we don't it will poison not only our day, but the people around us, and every situation that we faced in the that day or days to come if we are not careful.
Frustration is unfulfilled expectation! Often times what has tipped us off and allowed the frustration to manifest is something that we have not accomplished or dealt with previously to new opposition. My encouragement for everyone this week...
1. Recognize frustration when it arises and deal with immediately.
2. Understand that if you're doing positive things negativity is always close by (keep it moving).
3. If there're things that you have not accomplished deal with those lack of accomplishments immediately so that they do not return or we visit you in future.
4. Be goal oriented so that if some of your goals are not reached yoy still have other goals to pursue.
5. Keep yourself in check so that those around you are not suffering because you have not taken care of your due diligence to keep your own spirit soul and body in tact.
6. Don't sweat the small stuff if you can't handle little things the big things will devastate you (to whom much is given much is required).
7. Remember that what does not kill you makes you stronger (in order to grow there are potential growing pains).
8. Finally choose to remain focused not being deterred by anything or anybody. I am speaking to you all directly out of my own experiences and even as I'm writing this I am encouraging myself. I pray that this is an encouragement to you as well.
God bless you all, and have a great week.
