“WHAT IF” THIS HAPPENED CAN BE A GOOD THING
Following up on my theme that what comes up in a life coaching session pertains to all of us I am relating what came up this morning.
Do you know one person who doesn’t worry? I don’t. I think that we can all agree that we would like to minimize our worrying. But what is worry?
That’s what we talked about in our call. When you worry, you believe that something in the future will occur that will a negative effect on your life down the road.
The truth is you don’t know for sure. So you are making a negative assumption about the future. That’s what we are doing. And rather than living in the present, we are living in a “what if world.”
Let’s flip it. But before we do that, let’s call worry…concern. Let’s take what we are concerned about and give it the best case scenario. For example we might be concerned about business. And we might think that if the business is getting slower, then in three months it will be even slower.
What if you said because this month is a little bit slow, I am poised to have my best month ever? Don’t you think you would have more fun while you go through what you go through? You know you would. Change the questions you are asking yourself.
