Chapters
If you shift that perspective from why is this happening to me? To there must be a reason as to why it's happening, I think you give yourself a better chance to come out the backside a better person. Would you agree with that? Sure. It's what is God trying to teach me in this moment? Because I can look back in my life and I would challenge anybody to think this way. If you really think about how you got to where you are today, it's likely you had positive things that steered you in a direction and negative things that steered you in a direction. Start learning to look for what am I supposed to learn with this negative out, this negative thing that's pushing me a direction. And I would say one of the worst things that ever happened to me in my business career pushed me to one of the better, best things that happened to me in my business career. And so when you can start recognizing that, it gives you a whole different perspective. It doesn't mean it's not hard, but you got to change your mindset to have the right thinking to essentially see what you need to see in that moment and get out of the woe is me stuff.
