I’m sure you have been around people who always seem to thrive in life. They have a smile on their face and they constantly see the positive in every situation. You know the kind I am talking about. It has to do with that “make lemonade out of lemons stuff” we hear about.
But before you write them off, take a look at them and their lives. Is there something a little different about the outcome of their endeavors? Do they seem to always get the promotions, pay raises and breaks in life? So maybe they are doing something right that you can learn from. You might have to actually admit you could be a tad out of sync with the universe.
You’ve seen it in your lifetime, those who appear to have all of the talents needed to really succeed in life and yet, they live lives of mediocrity, never rising to that level of “Wow, look at them.” So what is the difference between the two? One can work so hard and get nowhere, while the other breezes through life. Is it just a bad hand of cards that’s been randomly dealt to someone, and that’s the life they have to play, or could it be something much more specific?
So what’s the key? How about expectations! Do you expect to win, or are you just in hopes you will? Try expecting more out of life and see if the cosmos doesn’t give you something back. Expectation is like faith, it has a force to it, just like love, anger and your other emotions. Here’s an example. If you wake up in a bad mood, you spill your coffee, catch every traffic light on the way to work and then have an unexpected project thrown at you, you are going to be emitting all kinds of bad energy. At that point, it’s almost a given you will not have a lovely opportunity flow into your life, because you wouldn’t see it if it swatted you on the head.
Let’s change that up a bit. You wake up, spill your coffee and are thankful you’ve got more to fill your cup up with. On the way to work, as you sit at every traffic light, say a prayer for those you know who are hurting. When that project comes across your desk, look at it as an opportunity to shine in the boss’ s eyes. With that kind of energy, you are bound to win something. It may not be a prize, but you will sure be a winner at life.
So when you are filling out your next 3 x 5, or entering online, check your energy, your mind set and then enter with confidence. Remember, you are a winner!
