"Just see things from my point of view!"

-
There are times when all you need to make a situation better is for someone else to change their attitude. "The situation is not that bad, it is just the way they see it." That is your opinion anyway... You want to say: " Just trust me" or "Just see things from my point of view" If what you really want from someone is for their attitude to change... Leave their attitude alone. A person's attitude is the output of their perception of a situation. Trying to change an output by going after only the output is not effective.

They have so much faith that the pain barriers are tolerable. They internalize the discomfort through the filter that faith provided. Faith in what?… It ...

Endurance 101:

Sometimes you feel like you are one let down away from a breakdown. It can feel much like control is slipping out of your hands. And there is this desperate need to grip something. The feeling of needing to hold on tight to something. Control was never in your hands. Total control over an outcome is an illusion. The only real control we have is in the way we react to situations. The way to train your reaction is to work on your perception of what goes on around you. Grab onto gratitude. Somewhere someone wishes your biggest problem was their smallest problem. This reminds you that you are blessed. But then some time passes and... Sometimes you feel like if someone asks you to help them talk through another "silly" problem you may lose your mind. Grab onto gratitude. Somewhere someone wishes they could be even a fraction as social and comfortable telling someone they desperately need help. This reminds you that you ar...
