When was the last time you stopped to enjoy the moment? When you’re at work do you constantly wish you weren’t there? Where would you rather be? The beach, Paris, or just home? When life gets tough and we find ourselves in tense situations we immediately forget that regardless if we are at our jobs or at the beach. Wherever we go there we are. If you are unhappy at your job do you really think a vacation is going to drastically change your happiness? Instead of being miserable for weeks and hoping for that two week vacation in Florida. Enjoy each moment.
The Forest
Let me give an example, you go to work but you are frustrated because someone else got a promotion. Now you feel ignored, unappreciated, and you let it ruin your whole week. Meanwhile you have a kid at home who is healthy, happy and adores you. You end up ignoring them and that nice picture on the fridge they drew for you. At this point you need to stop! You need to take a deep breath and focus on your forest, not just the one tree that didn’t grow the way you want it to.
Enjoy The Gift Of Life
Life is a gift, it doesn’t matter your social status, title, or position! Yes, not getting a well deserved promotion is frustrating but think about what you do have. Reflect on what you’ve been blessed with. You only get one life! Don’t spend everyday wishing you had whatever is you have your eye on. Life has so much more to offer you and what worries you right now may not be a big deal the next day. Next time you find negativity over-staying its welcome, take a step back, take a deep breath and enjoy the moment.
