changing lanes
“One wrong turn deserves another changing lanes” (Changing Lanes, 2002)
We have all experienced moments in our life when we hear ourselves say ‘yes’ to a job, person or situation that we know deep in our heart is not right for us. Yet, still we choose to accept them. Then we end up being a full time complainer, very chronic one.
There wasn’t much actually to complaint about until I realized… I was surrounded by a group of people who can never find anything about which to be happy. If it is not about their relationship then it’s about their job or the company; or the boss, or the money. People gripe about everything. Screaming, yelling, demanding…. And that’s how the negativity spread. The repeated negative thoughts and words are like a contagious disease, it infected even the most optimistic person.
It was the worst of time.. Yet it was the best one. A turning point of life, a moment when my life took an unexpected turn. Given me a totally new outlook on life.
God uses negative people as the way to get me to move on whenever I’m getting comfortable in a situation that’s no longer challenging. If I didn’t have these people, I would probably just stay. They gave me the ‘kick’ that I need.
The hardest part is to admit that I was on the wrong part and need to turn back on track. Yes, Nothing will change until you personally acknowledge the decision you made isn’t working for you.
There are no mistakes and there’s always a lesson to be learned. Life is full of second chances.
Gracias..
