If you’re constantly looking for the reasons it’s not working, that’s what you’ll find. You’ll always find the broken parts, the letdowns, the un-met expectations. And we’ve gotten pretty good at this.
AHHHH, Why isn’t this working?!!!!!!
Right? We’re all there sometimes.
But what if, rather, you could have just as much of a Jedi-sense for what IS working.
Why is this working? Why have I been able to make it to where I am right now?
Here’s the thing: You’ve made it this far. You’re here today reading this email at this point in your career because you have a career that has different points! You didn’t stay in one place!
Which means things are working. You’re making it down your path. There are good things happening right now!
There’s so much hoopla around what isn’t working…and then people are so surprised by their own depression, when all they focus on everyday is what’s lacking.
If you always go looking for the negative you always find it. You will always be experiencing it and it will rub off on you in all facets of life.
Perhaps you could use a break? Perhaps you can and will change what you’re looking for. And then, in turn, you will change what you find.
