What Will Be ...

So my mind has not been at rest for an entire month and there is a possibility that it might go on for much longer. By no means does it mean that nothing is going the right way for me right now. As a matter of fact, a lot of things are starting to look up and I can gladly say my mind is not at rest because I am finally getting round to accomplishing a bunch of things that normally, I should have accomplished a while back.

I dream a lot! Hey! Who doesn't. I also make a lot of plans. I guess a lot of people do that as well. But in the past, the plans I made never got past my brain and never even made it to a piece of paper. Truth is I basically had a mentality that things would just happen even if I did nothing. I have since graded myself "F for Foolish" for ever thinking that stuff would just happen without me making an effort.

There is nothing wrong with being carefree but when it comes to certain issues that concern your future, that carefree attitude has to be put in check. A lot of us are familiar with the phrase "What will be, will be" and honestly, that is how I was living life. Again nothing is wrong with that but in my case, "abuse" is an understatement for the way I treated that phrase. If the slightest problem arose whenever I was trying to get stuff done, I would just turn off and of course my response was "What will be, will be". I intended on starting this year on a better note but that never worked out, thanks to that phrase. I literally applied it to every damn phase of life I could think about and stuff was not getting better and yet I said "What will be, will be"

One thing I can say that I always did and still do was have a quiet moment when I think about stuff and life generally and it just so happened that some voice in my head redesigned the phrase and actually got me doing a bit of pondering. The phrase went something like this "What should be, isn't happening". And I wondered  to myself why things were not happening. I tried so hard not to blame myself for all that should have been but weren't but of course I soon came to the conclusion that it was denial and I was only deceiving myself.

It was all it took. I realized that my number one problem was me and my attitude towards accomplishing tasks was diminished. Why? I would never know and I do not ever want to spend time trying to find out. All I know is that as true as the phrase "What will be, will be" might sound, it shall no longer have any command over how I run affairs of my life. I had a spectacular April and I realized that attacking issues with a positive mind and a positive attitude yields positive results. I never even attacked such issues with a negative attitude. I just allowed whatever it was to envelope me and keep me down. I allowed it! Well, never again. The voice in my head that tweaked the phrase a little and got me thinking and getting down to business was very well needed and I am optimistic that May will even be more spectacular than April.

Everybody goes through tough times and it is really up to you to either let the tough times take charge of your life or you toughen up and handle the tough times. You might even get knocked down in the process but every event that does not go according to plan is a learning experience and it will only make you wiser for another time. And it is important to get back up as quickly as possible and keep pushing. I seriously want to stress that for all of us, whatever is gonna happen will happen but we have the power to change our destinies for the better.

It took me a while but I have finally learnt that. This was a real experience and I just thought to share
