Turn Problems into Actions!!!

Do you sometimes feel that you are always unlucky, stressed out and unhappy? No matter what day it is, no matter what the season is, do you feel that sometimes you meet friends or colleagues and they immediately start talking about their PROBLEMS (I´ll explain what’s a PROBLEM and an ACTIVITY, later) and that they magnify every little point to larger than life extent!!

If it s not THEIR personal problems, they start blaming OTHERS, government, politics and you name it they have their NEGATIVE remarks ready for it. In other words they flood you with negativity and you start wondering why life is so unfair for them!

Well .....This article is for THEM. However, If you are one of THEM then this article is for YOU... and let s face it i think we can ALL be guilty of this from time to time!  

Soooo.....in order to help and make life more enjoyable and stress-free. let s step up to a higher level and get equipped with tools and action points to handle problems!

Difference between a PROBLEM and an ACTIVITY

When we face an unexpected situation or unplanned task, instead of embracing stress and start getting panic attacks, stop here for a moment. Is this really a problem? Or could it be an additional activity you need to perform?

Well .....Then.... “just do it”. Don’t think too much about why this is happening for you. If you don’t know what that additional action is that you need to take, then just ask others and seek help. Finish the matter. Become stress free. Now tell me was that REALLY a problem?
 
Soooo...Let me reverse the situation for you. ...If you had considered this additional activity as a BLOCKING stone and kept on PROCRASTINATING and increased your stress levels ... where would you have got? NOWHERE!   When we take ACTION, the PROBLEM will be solved!!

Read this sentence a couple of times...

ACTIVITY is different than a PROBLEM!! Activity is something you NEED to do anyway and you KNOW how to do it. A PROBLEM is something you don’t WANT to do or dont know HOW to do!!!  

Soooo.... plan well, get information, finish one task at a time.

Stop the negative streams

Yes, stop it. If you feel you are getting negative news from TV then stop watching that channel or even better switch off TV. If you think you are constantly influenced by negative thinking friends, then deal with them.  

Don’t expect perfection in everything you see!

Mistakes do happen once in a while from everyone including you. Soooo....When someone commits a mistake, point it out positively and offer the solution. We are only human  

Involve yourself in a hobby

Whether it’s listening to music or learning a new language or playing chess. Make sure that you give yourself a leisure time. Soooo...Read inspiring content and motivate yourself!!  

Stop comparing yourself to others

This may be the one of the root causes for your negative feeling. Understand that everyone is unique and blessed with their own happiness or faced with own challenges (note that I have not said problems).   So focus on YOURSELF. Reduce distractions. Invest in yourself. Eliminate fluff. Don’t fall for the comparison trap. Free up yourself from undue stress.

SOOOO....Create Time For Your Life and try the above small changes to your life. Your “unhappiness” is just an illusion. You are already happy. You just need to realize it.

And dont forget.......Happiness is not a destination....it s a way of life!!!!
