Motivational Monday: Get over yourself

Have you ever felt like the victim? Things simply weren't going your way and you felt like the world was caving in on you and no one understood what you were going through? You whine and complain to any and everyone who was willing to listen to your sorry sob story? No matter how much you tried to forget the situation or person who made you upset, you just couldn't seem to...Well guess what?

GET OVER YOURSELF! Stop playing the victim and start playing the victor. You know why you shouldn't cry over spilled milk? Because 1. it's already on the ground and 2. it's easy to clean up. It's too easy to feel sad for yourself when things don't go your way. How about you challenge yourself and be happy...or rather optimistic in tough situations.

Try it! When you are in a tough situation and you feel like you want to cry, yell, and scream remind yourself that you are more than the situation you are in, smile, and move on to things that are in your control...like your attitude.

Instead of crying over spilled milk, clean it up and pour yourself another glass...after all it's just milk.

"When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves."
