So, if you’ve been following along in this exciting journey, you know we talked recently about charting your course.<\/p>\n
Setting Sail<\/strong><\/p>\n Having a plan and taking action isn’t enough. In today’s world of high tech systems, there are so many moving parts that make up our wide world. <\/p>\n Technical Difficulties<\/strong><\/p>\n For example, using a computer connected to an internet service provider that then connects to Facebook’s game’s app is an amazing system. And it works… most of the time.<\/p>\n When it doesn’t work… Can I just say, “Arg?”<\/p>\n Then What?<\/strong> Please note, in case you didn’t notice the humor in the above list of option, I was being over-dramatic.<\/p>\n Life Happens<\/strong><\/p>\n As you can see by my example, the biggest challenge here isn’t that I can’t get the Facebook game to come up on my computer. The biggest challenge is how I choose to respond to the situation.<\/p>\n Being human, we all have the ability to choose our thoughts, feelings, actions, and results. <\/p>\n So what if the computer doesn’t work the way I expect it to. Maybe my expectations were unrealistic. <\/p>\n Experiences Shape Us<\/strong><\/p>\n What I want to focus on is that today I am becoming the person I will be tomorrow. In that light, some of the questions I may ask are as follows:<\/p>\n How does this change my goal?<\/p>\n What options are there? <\/p>\n What is within my control?<\/p>\n What is beyond my control?<\/p>\n Is there someone who can help me?<\/p>\n What do I want to see happen?<\/p>\n And then, when you are not in a fragile emotional state (it’s okay. We all have those moments.), then make a decision and move forward.<\/p>\n Whatever decision you make is going to be the right one for you. You just need to trust that little voice to guide you.<\/p>\n A Personal Note<\/strong><\/p>\n May I please get a little personal here? <\/p>\n If I had something happen, like the example above, I’d also ask one more question.<\/p>\n What’s it worth?<\/u><\/p>\n Is dealing with the “small things” really worth all the drama in order to become the person I want to be tomorrow? Is this dream of mine worth whatever it takes to make it happen for me? <\/p>\n I’ve heard two things about following your dreams.<\/p>\n First, one who chases two rabbits catches none.<\/p>\n Second, if it isn’t worth the pursuit of a lifetime, then it isn’t worth your time.<\/p>\n We each will come to points where decisions must be made.
