Making the best out of a bad situation

Life doesn’t always go the way you plan it. You try and plan how you want your life to go, and bam, something happens that causes it to go off course. You didn’t plan it. It just happened. The best example is how Covid turns most of our lives upside down. None of us expect it; it just came out of the blue.
Or it could be a medical report or a job loss that throws your life off course. Well, unfortunately, that sucks. However, one can’t dwell on a wrong moment, a bad day, a bad week.
Each of us has a choice, one can take a bad situation and focus on it and make it grow, or one can focus their energy on something positive.
For me, with covid, it’s focusing that I spend more time with my wife and daughter. I focus on starting this blog was another thing.
When bad stuff happens, try turning it around, focus on the cure instead of the sickness, focus on the new job instead of the one that fired you. Mindset can be a powerful thing.
