Negative things are not restricted to your life, your job, or your thoughts. I say negative because of the impact that certain events, thoughts, and surroundings have on us.
Everyone's jobs can be very difficult and seem overwhelming at times. Everyone struggles with different thoughts, or as some call them demons, which is why the same event can have different outcomes for different people.
A nurse may be seem better at handling death just like an athlete or actor seems to handle public criticism better than most. It's not the numbness that gets them through the job, it's the positive things that happen. The life that is saved, the hits, runs scored, and being a positive role model that gets them going.
A dead beat dad can choose many avenues to change his life. One is not greater than another.
All my life, the little things that people seemed more intent on focusing on (good or bad), the more I wanted to show them a huge, wide-open world! Don't get stuck on one (good or bad) thing. Nothing should consume you. Anything subject to consumption always ends up as waste. Don't be consumed.
Get real with your self.
You feel sad. Ask yourself why.
You feel scared. Ask why?
You feel ....... Ask why?
This is not a time where you circumvent the answer and assume it's bad or wrong. No, find out the answer and work with it.
You feel someone has an agenda, ask, and clear the air. Don't stand there with that yoke around your neck while you pretend to have a meaningful conversation with them.
Get out of your den when it isn't peaceful. Don't stand around waiting on a miracle when you have the power for a solution. Don't be so weak either. Things outside of your control are not capable of knocking you off course. Things you can control are!
