Creatures Of Habit - Todays "Daily Thoughts"

Did you ever realize how much we are creatures of habit? For example, when you go into the store do you always start on the same isle first?





When you go to a weekly meeting, do you tend to sit in the same chair each time? I know I do.

I get up in the morning, I make coffee, get dressed, eat breakfast, check my email.......Same order every day.

The point is......we create a system and then we seem to stick to. It is our "comfort zone". Its what we know. What we can count on to be a constant in our lives.

I wonder if that is just because in other areas of our lives its feels so crazy, unorganized, and haphazard. The reason for most of these feelings are because we cannot control the actions of other and what they chose to do. So often, others actions impact our lives.

What do I mean? Well, if someone lies about you for instance, or steals from you, cheats you, or decides to gossip about you......you cant control that. They are their own person and they choose to do, or not to do, these things. No matter what you think.

Life will always have its up and downs, its twists and turns, and its unexpected happenings. The point is not what life throws at you....but what you do with it when it does. If life throws you lemons....don't just pucker up.....make lemonade instead.

For every down.....there will always be an up. Never give up, only believe.
