THE WAY YOU SEE IT.

When your coach tells you that the very things you're going through that feel like hell are actually a good thing, and you just have to change the way you're looking at it, you go just weak.

Omor, it sounds crazy, but come to think of it, it is true.

I don't believe in coincidence. Hence, this line of thought makes sense to me. Because things don't just happen. And if they do happen, it's all for the better.

When we go through stuff, it's necessary not to be distracted by the magnitude of whatsoever it is. That's the wrong way to deal with things. How do you look at the challenges you face? How do you understand them? What are the bases on which you evaluate what you're going through?

I had an impossible day yesterday. It was so tedious, I got upset about it. But after my call with my coach, I decided to put on a new mental cape and look at it differently. I let go of the frustration of the pending tasks that were stressing me, had a good nap, and tried again.

Well, not until this morning did I get it right. And even so, it was still a lot to put together, yet I wasn't raging. I wasn't allowing the process to frustrate me like it did the other time.

Dearest reader, this impossible task wasn't the problem, i was. Or rather, the way I was looking at it was. It was stretchy, but it inevitably got me to think for myself. Therefore, it was a good thing.

Like my coach puts it, "If a heartbreak hurts so bad that it gets you to fix your ass and do better, then that heartbreak was a good thing."

And you'd only be able to experience it as a good thing if you begin to see it differently.

Take off your victimhood mental model and look differently at your challenges.
