We all give thanks for the obvious things in life. Family and friends, loved ones, good fortune in work, a job we love maybe, good health hopefully, and being happy most of the time.
Then things happen in life that we don’t enjoy, we don’t particularly care for and get frustrated at a lot. We worry about them, we moan at them and get to say often “why me again”.
If you look back at many of those things that you hated at the time, they often turned out for the best.
I remember on lots of occasions I quit my job to do this full time, when we expanded the gym we met many deal ends and brick walls, many things never came off despite initial promise.
The more roadblocks that came up made me think of ways I could get around them by using a different approach maybe, and when that didn’t work another approach would work out finally for us.
Frustration, getting fed up, worry can be great tools for us to be grateful for too.
Those tough situations make us more resourceful and resilient. If we can find a way to get something down especially when we have had maybe 3-4 doors slammed shut in our faces, I personally think we have become a much better for it overall.
Life happens to us good and bad and a fair bit of it could be classed as life sessions that we can often take some good out of, even if at the time it seems like a lousy pack of cards we have been dealt.
Use the frustration, bad luck, worry, anxiety to fuel fresh workouts at the gym, to flush out that negativity out of your brain and turn a bad situation into something you come back from stronger than ever-boys and mind.
