Disappointments

It would seem we cannot get through life without

disappointments. If that is the case then it would seem wise to learn how to handle them.  A few tips:

1. Realize that disappointments often occur because we had expectations of other people. Who are those expectations about? Us, wanting others to be a certain way is about us. They can only be who they are. Perhaps if we accepted others for who they are we would have fewer disappointments.

2. Disappointments might mean that our life or maybe just our day is changed now . It may be we have more work; or don't get to go somewhere or have to give up life as we know it. Breath and know that we always have what we need to move forward. The day might be turned around. So be it, trust a better day is waiting to unfold.

3. The biggest tip I have to share is that in any moment, in any instant, you can change your thoughts. Feeling disappointed? Realize you don't have to because you can choose a better thought. You can change your focus. You can lift your mood. It's a choice you have.
