Simple Steps to Stay Upbeat When Things Go Wrong
What can we do when life doesn’t go as planned and all the things possible go wrong? Why saying no to judgment in those moments will help you feel better, happier and more confident?
In this episode, I share three ways how to stay calm, more positive and confident even if life is like a rollercoaster. We’ll talk about empathy, feeling curious and thinking out of the box.
Feeling empathy can sound like a cliché, but I share how this can shift your feelings in a powerful way. A simple “mind trick” of imagining a child instead of an adult can entirely shift your perspective and you’ll find yourself in a more loving space instead of the mess of your negative emotions created by judgment.
I explore what being curious can do for you when shitty things happen. I use the specific and real example of a break-in into our car a couple of weeks ago. When things go wrong for you, this is an amazing way how to change from sucky to compassionate.
Thinking out of the box is the third way how to react to uncomfortable and uninvited situations in a loving way, instead of in fear or anger. I’ll talk through how we often have many more options than we actually see and how realizing this can be liberating.
If you want this for yourself, pop in those headphones, let’s dive into these three strategies on how to react in a better way and let’s decide to Screw Being Unhappy!
