This was my way of thinking before I had decided to take <a href="http://personaldevelopment-courses.com/my-personal-development-courses-was-it-the-cards-the-dealer-the-weather-or-me" rel="nofollow">personal development courses</a>. At a card game, if I’d decide to give up and blame the dealer and the cards…who would lose the game?

They will happen to us and around us. Some good. Some bad. However, there is one thing that will always be in our control – unless we choose to hand over that power – and that is, how we react. Life is not fair or unfair my friends; life just is. Johnny In this life there are many things (most things, in fact) which will happen despite you and I. They will happen to us and around us.

This is a mental process for other future success. We learn so much with the model of failing forward. This is a great post describing why we should continue to push along in any of our endeavors.
