You know those times when you had it all planned out and then, well, the plans just didn’t cooperate.

I am a planner.  I lay out my plan.  I estimate the time it will take for each task.  Then, when it is time, I set the plan in action.  Sounds good, huh?  It works great . . . except for those times when it doesn’t.

One big hiccup can throw everything off!  That is when you ask yourself, what does this make possible?  Instead of getting upset and going into a panic, why not simply reframe the setback as an opportunity.

Let’s face it.  Things will not always go our way.  We will face disappointment.  We will feel frustrated and let down at times.  Instead of giving in to those feelings, focus on what you can learn from the situation.  You may even find that you get a better result than your original plan would have brought!

Keep a mindset of opportunity so you can live . . . your life to the fullest.
