Turn Your Adversity To Opportunity

A story was told about a farmer who owned an old mule. One day the mule fell into the farmer’s well. After a careful consideration the farmer made up his mind that neither the mule nor the well was worth the trouble of saving. Next he called out to his neighbors and narrated what happened to them and ask them to help him cover the well with dirt and bury the old mule at least that will help put an end to his misery. When the mule initially noticed what was happening, he was alarmed. However, as the dirt kept coming on him, It dawned on him that each time the dirt landed on him he sub- consciously reacted by shaking it off and stepping up. So he consciously began doing it now, each time the dirt lands on him he will shake it off and step up. This he continued to do despite the pain he was going through. Not long afterwards he was able to step over the wall of the well triumphantly though exhausted and battered. Then he taught to himself, “what was actually supposed to kill me actually helped me.” You must have heard that what doesn’t kill you make you stronger. I have found that to be true depending on your attitude . Often times we may not see any reason for certain adversities and challenges that come upon us but the experiences from them can become confidence-builders and priceless sources of insight if we can only make up our minds to learn from them. Most of them actually happen for us to learn. When we get too comfortable we may never grow or become the best we can be. The mother eagle teaches her little ones to fly by making their nest uncomfortable so that they are forced out of it. So watch out! That challenge you never saw anything good has a positive side to it only if you can look beyond the pain. You may be in a situation where you have more questions than answers right now, just know that it is not the end. All Adversities Hold Opportunities Life is a never ending source of different, and sometimes challenging, experiences. According to Kevin Conroy,”Everyone is handed adversity in life. No one’s journey is easy. It’s how they handle it that makes people unique.” The biggest problem is not really the challenges we are facing but how we perceive them. Many successful people today were able to turn adversity to opportunity They took advantage of their adversity to become who they are today . The truth is that every adversity holds an opportunity that can either serve as a stepping stone or a vital lesson that will be of much help later. In other words adversities can be a source of change, and growth. Learning to deal with and overcome adversity is what makes us who we are. It All Depends on Your Response Like I have pointed out before, it is how we respond to challenges that makes the difference. It is very easy to dwell in self-pity during difficult times. However, when we look at these challenges from a positive angle, only then can we see the opportunities that come with them. Here are tips that will help you respond to adversities or challenges positively; •Accept that adversity is inevitable in life. It can come to anyone. This will prepare you mentally and emotionally to handle them when they come. •Don’t try to be it all alone. Encouragement matters. We have the courage to bear when we learn of the experiences of others. •Instead of allowing the pain of the moment to becloud you look beyond it and reflect on how come? Why now? What next? Get curious! And you will find the valuable insights in that situation.

6 Ways to Overcome Indecision

The progress of your life depends on the
decisions you make. The reality of your life
today is based on the decision you made
yesterday. Many are afraid to make decisions
because they are afraid they will make the
wrong ones. What they are yet to understand is
that INDECISION IS A DECISION.
Someone once said, “It is better to make a
wrong decision than not make any decision at
all.” Therefore learn to overcome indecision.
When we make decisions, our decisions also
turn around to make us and invariably determine
the course and progress of our lives.
Here are 6 ways to overcome indecision and
make progress in your life;
Define Your Fears: Most times what keeps us
from making the decision we need to make is
the fear of what would be the outcome.
However if we can identify what it is that we
are actually afraid of;Listing possible solutions
or options, it will be easy to come up with a
way of dealing with our fears. It is less difficult
to make decisions when you know that some of
your fears can be handled.
Do Away With What People Will Think: often
times we allow the idea of “what people will
think” to get in the way of the decisions we are
about to make. This is likely going to blind us
to the true reality of the situation. You will find
yourself not doing many things you ought or
need to do if you are such person that
constantly worried about what others will think.
What you need to know is that at the end of the
day you are the only person who will live with
the decision or the indecision you’ve made ‘cos
it’s your life. Take full responsibility for it! The
desire to impress or satisfy others leaves you
either indecisive or constantly making the wrong
decisions. When we are less worried about what
others will think, it is easier to make decisions.
Don’t Dwell On It For So Long: Indecision can
also come from mulling or thinking over the
matter or issue more than necessary. The truth
is that every decision we about to make always
appear to have two sides to it. One side may
appeal to you while the other side will not. The
ability to analyze issues and seek more
information is needed to make good decisions
but too many analysis and information can get
you overwhelmed and makes it more difficult to
make the needed decision. Just get to know the
basic pros and cons of the decision you are
about to take. If the pros exceed the cons, you
have your answer already.
Learn To Be More Confident: People that lack
self-confidence hardly make their own decisions
because they belief that their decisions are never
going to be good enough. They never trusted
their abilities. This is a sign of a poor self-
esteem or self-worth. You can boost the
confidence and independence to make your own
decision by building your self-esteem
Trust Your Intuition: This is a feeling that
guides you to act in a certain way without fully
understanding why. It is that feeling you have
about something that turns out to be true.
Someone explained it as a “rational and direct
outgrowth of experience.” such experience
allows you to recognize what’s happening and/
or what to do. Intuition helps us make decisions
even when we don’t have all the facts. The
truth is we usually don’t have all the facts.
However this does not mean that you should
make blind decisions. But rather that you should
examine the facts and options you have. And if
some how your heart connects to one of the
options, have the boldness to go for it.
Understand That No One Will Always Get It
Right: Never forget that you are human. That
means no matter the facts you have, you may
not always get it right. However, don’t forget
that every decision you made and it later turned
out to be wrong will teach you something to
help you make a better decision next time. Every
success story has a mixture of both right and
wrong decisions. So let go of perfection and
write your own success story
