Why not me?

When adversity comes our way, the first thing we want to do is make sense of it. Then we immediately say... "Why me?" We get consumed with having to figure why bad events happen to us. We spend all of our energy on trying to figure it out and hosting an world class event called: the Pity Party. All of this energy is negative and doesn't solve or address any of the adversity. I was guilty of this (as much as anyone on the planet). This was my operational conduct.

Then I sat down and thought about it from a positive view. Why not me? When adversity comes my way, Why not me? If I handled it with passion, courage and positivity then maybe others can learn from me and it will help them! Why not me?

So I have a new outlook on adversity. Plus I know this to be absolutely true: We learn so much more from our adversity than any of our good fortune.

Why not me? Adversity: Bring it on...I will grow and learn from it...and when it's all said and done; actually I will be thankful for it!

Have an awesome 4th!
