Within my circle of friends, I keep hearing them lament how if only these were ideal circumstances they'd know what to do and how to move forward. Sorry to break it to you, but there will never be ideal circumstances to life. Unexpected things happen all the time, sometimes as tragedies (whether 9/11, the stock market crash or a pandemic) and other times it comes as "luck". But we don't get upset with "luck" because it plays in our favor. Though I don't wish bad things on anyone, the more we start to accept that the greater world is outside of our control, the more at peace we can be and ironically, have greater impact because we'll be focused on what we do have control over. And that is ourself, the individual. That is what I explore today and while it might not sound easy breezy in terms of subject matter, it can actually be very liberating once you accept this in life. Please be sure to comment with any thoughts or questions you may have. Or hit me up on social media @PhilSvitek. I’d love to hear from you!
