Confucius

   When you begin to shift your perspective, the very things around you that seem to be so stressful tend to look a little brighter. Suddenly the doom and gloom that weighed heavy on your chest seems to be just another drop in the bucket. Like Corona ads, shift your latitude.

   We usually sit with our backs against the wall like that awkward 8th grade dance. You eye up the people you’d like to dance with, if you could dance. You sit there waiting, hoping they talk to you without asking you to dance. Instead, we should dive right into the change and take it as an opportunity to flail around proudly.

  We have little control over the circumstances around us. We are limited to seeking new employment, ending a relationship, dwelling on something or someone we’ve lost, or some other forfeiture. Instead, we must look at what we do have control over. We must go within and approach change as an opportunity for personal growth.
