Just because things don't go to our plan doesn't mean they aren't working our right.
Every little factor that played a role in it turning out the way it did means it simply could not have turned out any different.
Yes its true if one of the factors were different it would have turned out different, but they weren't different they were as they were. Life unfolds in the ONLY way it can based on what happened before it. In this way life always turns out the way its meant too.
This requires developing faith and trust in the natural rhythm of life.

There is this picture in our heads (usually below the level of consciousness), I call the 'right path'. It is a picture of the way we think life should play out. When reality does not match this picture in our heads we become disappointed, sad, and angry. However when we understand and accept that it was the picture in our heads that was wrong and not life itself that turned out wrong we are able to let go of the expectation, realise that it turned out the only way it could have and appreciate it for what it is, what it can teach us, and what we do have.

Every experience is an opportunity to express your uniqueness.
Every experience is an opportunity to learn and grow.
Growth is the only real guage of success.
Every expression of your uniqueness is a demonstration of your true value and worth.
Thats what we all have in common.
We are all in the same boat, with different oars.

The game of life is one played by all.
Each one of us started the game at different times,
in different places,
with different tools.
To compare to others only creates suffering.
Progress is defined by growth,
Winning is defined by breath.
If you are still breathing, you are still in the game.
You are winning and still have the opportunity to grow.

These are probably some of the wisest words ever uttered.
We've all heard them before in some way or another.
But, why is it so hard to live via these simple understandings.
Control.
It's our constant attempt to control what cannot be controlled.
Total control is an illusion.
If we were to live via these simple statements we feel like we would be giving up our control,
and we couldn't do that because then life would not go to plan.
If life doesn't go to plan, we feel like we will be missing out on what we need to feel valuable and then we would feel worth less.
It all boils down to fear, fear of not proving our value and worth

We do not have total control but we do have influence.
We can influence the outcome, we can change our mindsets, we can focus on the solution and we can take action. that's all we can do to influence the outcome. Once you have done all you can you have to let go of the outcome and have faith in what will be.

If someone believes that going beyond their comfort zone is where they learn, grow and develop as a human being, no matter how difficult it may be in the process, they will be excited, happy or more motivated about this.
However if someone believes that going beyond their comfort zone means they might make a mistake, which means they don't get it right and they look stupid, or they wont be able to control what happens outside of their C Zone, then some sort of fear, or anxiety (stress) will occur.

Forgiveness is not for the other person, it is for you.
When you let go of anger, you are the one that benefits.

We all have experiences we would prefer not to encounter,
it's what we do with them that counts.
There is no denying that some experiences are out of our control, ironically when you let go of the need to control them and just allow them to be,
there tends to be more peace and acceptance and we move through it easier and with less pain.
And then we can learn from that experience and not only pass through it with peace but use it to grow and then it actually becomes beneficial.

How can we truly hope to effect change in the world if we cannot truly manage ourselves. Personal power comes from true understanding of who we truly are and what our purpose is, and acting on these things in a small consistently everyday. This frees us up to act without the NEED for approval from others. That is true power.
