Sometimes the universe does for you what you are unable to do yourself

“Sometimes the universe does for you what you are unable to do yourself.”

I heard this recently and it really seems to resonate with the journeys that some of my friends are going on.

I believe this statement is a glass-half-full kind of way to look at the world. Ok, THIS just happened to me. That sucks, I wouldn’t have chosen for that to happen. But…it did open that new door. And I wasn’t super happy with how things were going before. And oh this new thing could actually be so much better…

Some of this sentiment goes back to something I posted a few days back, which is that 80% of people are dissatisfied with their jobs. Which means, if five people lose their job, then four of them have the chance to find something better.

When life gives you lemons… well, you know the drill. Don’t complain that you used to have limes, cause maybe lemons are what you need right now.

If you can get on board with that, then almost every major change that comes your way can be seen as something that needed to happen to move you in the right direction, because you were unable or unwilling to do it yourself.

Embrace the change.
