We have all done it – expertly mapping out our day, our month, our year in our heads. And every time we are reminded that nothing ever goes exactly as planned. We hit a stoplight, get stuck in traffic, spill our coffee, come down with the flu, get into an argument with our loved ones, miss an important deadline, have to say goodbye to someone way too soon…
Life isn’t meant to be lived in a straight line that you can see ahead for miles and miles. It is meant to have twists and turns and events that you never would have imagined (good and bad!)
Embrace sudden change or when things don’t go your way; learn from the experience and use it for next time. Because believe me, there will be a next time. But you know what? You’ll get through it… you always do.
