Thanks Suzie. That’s an excellent definition. And it is a place that many people either never reach, or forget that was their objective at the beginning.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and adding to the conversation.

Thank you Suzie. And you are of course, correct. It takes daily practice, but it opens up a whole new way of thinking and living and being at peace.

Thanks for dropping by Janeane.

Life is not always easy or simple, and bad (and good) things come into our lives. We always have the choice to learn something from these things and go on doing life differently, or to be made bitter by them, ignore the lesson and be doomed to repeating the same error again and again.

Good to see you in the “stream”

As always a good article full of great information. It is important to look at things no matter how bad to see what lesson can be learned.

I am fortunate, Christi, either because I am old and/ or I learned early in life and have been asking myself for a very long time, “what is the lesson here? What can I learn from this situation?”
Thanks for taking the time to comment.

Great insight here, Martina. I especially like the reminder to view mistakes as lessons. Whenever I find myself in a particularly difficult situation, I try to ask myself, “What’s the lesson here?” and have encouraged my clients to do this as well. It’s not always easy in the moment, but it does help to pull you out of spinning thoughts and provide some perspective. Thanks for the suggestions!
