When life throws bricks at us, we can either create a castle or hit our heads with the brick
Acceptance of the situation is the first step toward creating a peaceful life. It is a normal human tendency to feel demotivated whenever something undesirable happens. Often we get carried away with our emotions and don’t accept the situation the way it is.
Energy flows where the attention goes. What we focus on grows. If we tend to focus on the negative aspect of any situation, it increases manifold. When our imagination works against us it makes the problem even worse. Thereby, it is wiser not to let the bad situation in our life overpower us and diminish our enthusiasm for life.
Adverse situations are our biggest teachers. They are the ladders that help us to climb in life and attain the desired growth and success. Acceptance simplifies our life and creates ownership. Our life is our creation and our responsibility. We can reprogram the software of our life with our intent. Then definitely we can grow and perform even amidst adverse situations.
Often the situation is not bad. We start using our imagination against us by overthinking, creating imaginary apocalyptic views. Which in turn traps us in the cage of complicated and horrendous self-created hell. If we have the power to create hell then we can use the same energy to create heaven. What we call heaven or hell is our state of mind. They exist within us and nowhere else. What we call hell is the adverse situation overpowering us. It is the result of our inability or inexperience to handle the adverse situations in our life. The situation may or may not be in our favor but it is in our hands what we are perceiving out of it, what we are making out of it.
It is in our hands what we make out of the various situations in our life. The need is to embrace the diversity life offers.
