As I mentioned in my Youtube video two weeks ago, I have developed an “it is what is it” mindset. Answer this question, “What will worrying about everything get you?” My answer: NOWHERE! Me having this mindset does not mean that I am in denial about whatever it is taking place in my life. This mindset keeps me in control of my life and mental space. When things go “wrong” in our lives we as humans tend to let it affect us mentally, emotionally, and it sometimes can lead to some physical decline.
I will be honest it’s not always easy to have this mindset because I am human and sometimes life can be a bit overwhelming. But for the most part that is the way I try to live daily. I do realize that sometimes all things are not in our control and it’s best to try keeping a positive mindset around all things.
When things aren’t going well:
-Determine if you can control what’s going on
-Identify your fears around the situation
-Figure out ways to manage your stress
-Give yourself positive affirmation that can push you through
Remember: life is full of changes and that’s something that you can not change or avoid. Change is one thing in life that’s constant. Having faith is something that helps when I’m experiencing change that I’m not too fond of. I try my best to pray through things and read scriptures that help me to worry less. Philippians 4:6, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”
There’s also the phrase, “Let Go and Let God”. Because again, there’s things that faith can get us through that we can’t get ourselves through. Sometimes we have to believe everything will be okay, even before it’s our reality. I know that everyone doesn’t have the same religion preference, but from my experience having a supernatural power of faith has gotten me through many trials in my life. I AM ALWAYS ROOTING FOR YOU! TRY NOT TO LET EVERYTHING AFFECT YOU, ESPECIALLY IF IT’S OUT OF YOUR CONTROL!
