Changing Directions

As we look ahead and we don't like what we see, then, we need to do something to change the direction.

I am talking about our own personal direction (since there is not much we can do about someone else's or the nation's).

A chinese proverb says:

"If we do not change our direction, we are likely to end up where we are headed."

How true that is.

If we don't like that we wake up every day discouraged or upset about our present situtation, then we need to sit down and make a list of what makes us feel discouraged or upset and start making changes.

We are in charge of ourselves.

True that many times we suffer the consequences for what someone else has done. However, since we cannot change his/her actions, we need to change our reactions.

So, after the proper time of mourning, we need to roll our sleeves up and get to work.

We are the only ones who can change our direction and therefore change the destination.

Remember to tackle only one thing at the time or you might end up getting even more discouraged and start thinking things cannot be changed.

Only one small thing at the time...

A year passes, one day at a time.
A house is built, one brick at a time.
We grow, one day at a time.

We can make our lives better, one day at a time!
