7 Empowering Phrases To Tell Yourself When Life Doesn’t Go Your Way

Sometimes life doesn’t go our way, and we can feel frustrated, angry and upset. Everyone experiences this, and it is up to you to choose how you will react to difficult times. It may be tempting to feel negative, but using positive phrases and words can make a huge difference.

In reality life will always have ups and downs, and true happiness isn’t a life without problems. True happiness is the ability to deal with whatever comes your way, even if you find yourself in an unpleasant situation.

It isn’t what the world gives you that counts – what counts is how you deal with what you get. Here are 7 empowering phrases to tell yourself when life doesn’t go your way.

You are Smarter Than You Think

Intelligence comes in all shapes and sizes. People have widely varying skill sets and have very different education backgrounds (formal or otherwise!). Because of this, it’s important to remember these differences when interacting with others. For instance, if I were placed in a room full of physicists, I would feel like the least intelligent person in the room. However, put me in a room full of writers and I’d feel right at home. You never want to sell yourself short or feel that you’re less intelligent than you really are. That’s not beneficial for anyone.

How Do You See Life/Yourself

Life is how we live, and learn either in an easy way or hard way.  Life gives way for experience, while experience gives way for learning. Life brings about so many people living in it with different characters, style, attitude, mentality and personality.

Marriage and Men

Ladies and Gentlemen, This post is not for everybody. It's for people who wish to get understanding.

Read this, often times we misplace our priorities when searching for a partner. I want to open our eyes to something using the Bible.

When you take a look at the first marriage in history, Gen 2:24... After God made man, he put him in the Garden of Eden, the word "Eden" is an Hebrew word for "where God dwells" so the first thing God gave man was "His Presence".

SOWING SEED

The reason I so like the verse in James is that it brings us a picture of what we must do to bring the harvest of righteousness about, we must sow the seeds of righteousness, seed by seed, so that our harvest will be plentiful. We must sow seeds daily---weekly--for our whole lives, that there will be remnants of His beauty, peace, redemption, everywhere we go, every day that we live. If we sow peace and not anger in our home, there will be a legacy of peace. If we sow anger, a legacy of anger and death. It is a choice we make, every day, every hour, as to what we are sowing and what we will reap.

BENEFIT OF FRIENDSHIP

Back in our primary school days, making new friends seemed so easy, all we needed was a few shared hobbies and value on the playground, and an unbreakable bond would be forged.

Friendship has both its physical and emotional benefit, let’s take a look at few of these benefits;

5 Ways To Overcome Fear

Fear is a tough topic to cover as it motivates so much of what we do on a day-to-day basis.  Even when we’re not fully aware of it, fear has its hooks in us and is dragging us down.  Naturally we aren’t talking about phobias or that adrenaline rush you get when you skid to a stop right before rear-ending the car in front of you on the freeway.  

Fear is so much bigger than that.  Fear drives almost all of our actions.  Why we do some things and why we avoid others, why we get close to some people and push others away.  In the process of life, fear is the single biggest hindrance to goal achievement.  It’s just such an important topic to cover.

Without further adieu, here are some keys to overcoming fear:

Why We Should Never Say Never

Though it may come off as slightly contradictory by the looks of this headline, I think that we should try to refrain from using the word “never” in our every day vocabulary. It has the simplest definition and in and of itself is a pretty self-explanatory word (by definition, meaning “not ever” or “not in any degree” as Merriam-Webster describes it).

So, why should we never say never, you may ask?

9 Ways To Stop Overthinking

If you’re someone who spends a lot of time “in your own head” mulling over things ad nauseam, you may think you’re alone.  You’re not… Not by a long shot!

Overthinking is a natural part of life for many of us, even when we’re not aware we’re doing it.  Research has shown that overthinking is prevalent in young and middle aged adults, with 73% of 25-35 year-olds identified as overthinkers.  If you find yourself spending an unreasonable amount of time thinking through something, twisting it around in your head until you’ve seen it from every angle and possibility, chances are you too are an overthinker.

There are very few benefits to being an overthinker.  Being logical (and therefore unemotional) about taking action has a lot of merit and can have positive results, but there’s a difference between thinking about something just enough – and thinking about something to the point of analysis paralysis.  The short of it is, you don’t want to be an overthinker!
