Have you ever wondered why at times things go their own way?

For many years I wondered why things were not going as I hoped for…as I continued being miserable and unhappy. Have you ever experience such a moment?

Worse, as I grew older; the misery and unhappiness increased. Slowly crashing every bit of hope I had for a better tomorrow. Everything seemed to be going so wrong; career, personal development, health, finance, relationship and spirituality. My persistence and perseverance being tested as I faced challenge after another in every context of my life.

I had to ask a question – “what is wrong with me?” and I found all the reasons; my family background, government my ex etc. How often do we ask the right question – “what is wrong with me?” but put our energy on the wrong answers and things we cannot change. Anyway, I had the answers but they did not brush off any of my misery and unhappiness while the negative emotions continued piling up; anger, fear, sadness, hurt and guilt!

I remember the day I asked the question one more time, just one more time – “what is wrong with me?”This time I had to focus on me;

• I adopted values, norms, beliefs, patterns and standards that were not serving me at all
• I had believes that were limiting my potential and the greatness within me
• With so much heavy burden within me; anger, fear, sadness, hurt and guilt

Wow! it felt so great having back full responsibility and control of my life with so much hope for a better tomorrow; without denying the fact that my background and experience contributed to all these. My world changed completely and it is getting better every day. May be that is all you need; change your thinking pattern, change your world.

Now;

• My values, norms and patterns serve me
• My belief spark the greatness within me
• My emotions serve me and I getting better every day

Only if we can learn the positive lessons from our past, our backgrounds, our experiences and our mistakes, and start doing things differently. Surely, a bit of persistence and perseverance will be required but the meaning, significance and inner fulfillment will outweigh it all!
