Are you too hung on up on the "Why" instead of focusing on the "What" or "How"?
Let me explain...
I have met many people on my online 'travels' who spend all their time asking themselves "Why" questions :
- Why am I here?
- Why do I always mess up?
- Why can't I be more successful?
- Why am I so unlucky?
And...because they are asking themselves those 'unanswerable' type questions - they just get even more depressed and frustrated when they find that they don't have the answers!
Focus instead on the "What" questions...
- What can I do NOW to improve my finances?
- What could I do differently next time?
- What will I focus on doing better today?
- What can I achieve if I really put myself 100% into it?
...and the "How" questions...
- How will I stop myself from reacting the same way next time?
- How will this help achieve my goals?
- How can I make my job more interesting?
- How can I find ways to learn more about myself?
It's all a question of questions!
How and What questions automatically focus you on doing something.
Why questions automatically provide excuses for why you are't soing something!
So - next time you feel that life is treating you badly - or you are wondering "Why them and not me?" - perhaps you should start looking for the How's and the What's to give you some help to get something positive out of the situation.
