Do You Have A Big Problem?
Written by Jeremiah Carstarphen
You will always be at one of three stages in life. You are dealing with a problem, one just left, or either one is on the way to visit you.
Everyone has problems. Some problems are bigger than others. This article will teach you how to handle any problem, regardless of how big it may be.
The first thing you must realize is that any problem that you may be dealing with…you are not by yourself.
That means that there are hundreds, or more than likely thousands of people in this world with that exact same problem.
Another thing to realize is that regardless of your situation in life, it can always be one of two things. It can always be better or worse.
You may think your dilemma can not get any worse, until something worse happens.
Also different types of problems affect different personality types differently.
For instance, a Red Shark could be devastated by a financial problem, and a Blue Dolphin might not even see it as a problem.
There are some problems that are so big that they will affect you, regardless of your personality type.
Are you going through one of those problems right now?
Remember the first point. You are not the only one in this world going through that same ordeal.
One person may let that problem consume his life. He cannot stop thinking about it. He talks about it to anybody who will listen. The problem shows all over his face and it affects everyone who sees him too.
Another person may have the exact same problem, but you would never know it by the way she carries herself. The key difference is that she carries herself and not the problem.
I heard a very profound statement in a seminar years ago, and I have never forgotten it.
“The size of the problem shows the size of the person.”
This is so true. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to what happens to you.
Next time you have a problem, step outside of yourself and observe your behavior. Look in the mirror and observe your facial expressions.
Pay attention to your thoughts also. Are they self-defeating thoughts, or empowering thoughts? What kind of questions are you asking yourself over and over again in your mind? Are you looking for a solution or magnifying the problem?
Also remember what you focus on expands. Many entrepreneurs let their problems take their complete focus, and the lose focus of what they need to do to be successful in their home business. Some people even stop building their business completely!
There are two types of pain in this world: emotional pain and physical pain. If we experience the pain of ending a relationship, that is an emotional pain. If we stump our toe against something hard, that is a physical pain.
If you want to reach your goals in your home business, treat your emotional pains like physical pains. When you get your feelings hurt, patch it up and keep it moving.
