It always comes down, never goes up..
If the worst comes to the worst , it normally does. We all have those periods in our life when things really go wrong. Times we go through with just one after the other disaster. It seems the world is there to get you. When things go wrong, no matter what you do.
Its Murphy’s law. Disasters do not live along, they live in a herd.
It seems life is not fair. I can guarantee you, life is not fair.
I have had my own portions of disaster and have learned to accept the idea that a few of them will be there for me in the future. I have learned not to live my life regretting the past and being afraid of the future. Living with continuous fear of what will happen is misery. Is pain. I have learned it the hard way. No more. BASTA.
You yourself, prepare yourself for disaster. One day it will go wrong. We are exposed to error, accident, madness and illness. Sorry, cannot change that. Our live looks like goes off-script, the script we had ourselves in our mind. The life with a smooth ride along the path of education, a career, a marriage, kids and a long healthy life. Sorry, this script is a sentimental lie. It is a dream, it will not happen. The world has not the path in mind you have.
So shit will happen. I can guarantee you that.
So stop being afraid of it to happen as it will happen. Stop living in the future. Live now. Now is Now.
And when the shit hits the fan, just know one day it will be over. One day you can talk about it again. One day it no longer controls your life. One day it is a memory.
Nothing is forever. Not even us.
So next time the shit hits the fan. Some tips:
- Release your frustration. Shout out loud 5 times Fuck It!! This feels really good, I know.
- Realise you are not alone. Many others are in the same boat.
- Frustration and depression are not going to help. Be sorry for yourself not too long.
- There is always plan B and C
- Focus on what you can influence and change. Do not bother with what you can not change.
- Everything has an end. One day.
- Find a moment to smile and dance ( after a while )
- Stop worrying about things you cannot control. Things will happen anyway. Live now.
And in business get used to it, as the fan is always on when you are around.
It is what it is.
BASTA.
See you. Fons
