We sometimes make mistakes, serious mistakes or minor mistakes. We make poor decisions, very poor decisions with bad consequences. We get hurt and feel revengeful. Bad events happen, wars, earthquakes, etc - Worries and anxieties pour in. We invest in businesses that collapse. Accidents happen, etc. Marriage gone wrong? relationship gone wrong?
This is the downhill cycle and make us feel regretful, weak, shameful and depressed.
Everyone will experience it at some point in their life to certain degree.
The question of "why", makes it even worse as you'd dig down into why things go wrong in order to learn lessons from the experiences (root cause analysis) but get stuck in the why for too long.
The freedom, power and joy comes when you change your focus and ask yourself the golden question everyday:
"What can I do about it now?"!
If you can't do anything about it, worrying about it doesn't help so simply search for something that you can do something about it!
If you can do something about it, then you must focus on just doing that.
The good news is there is always something that you can do something good about it.
This simple formula is life changing, unti-depressant and empowers you to be in control of what you can be in control without feeling like a victim about anything in your life.
The speed of your mental power recovery depends on how quickly you can mentally move from the state of "OMG, Why!" to "Understood, what can I do about it right now".
And the joy and peace pour in when you are in control.
