What To Do When Everything Goes Wrong
Get a “SPA-Treatment”!
No, not an actual Spa, although it might help, but the S.P.A. approach; Stop. Plan. Action.
When everything is going wrong in your life whatever you are doing is clearly not working so the first thing to do is to stop.
Stop and let it go. Things suck; that’s okay! It happens to everyone and is not the end of the world.
See Niklas Gökes answer for a great example!
The thing is that whatever happened, and however good your plan was, what you have been doing just isn’t producing the necessary results.
Things do not always go to plan.
Life happens and, for better and for worse, you have to deal with it.
But, either way, there is no point in getting frustrated about it, for no matter how you feel about it, life will not give you any free handouts just for feeling bad.
The best thing you can do is to stop and let it go.
Not because it is the end, over, or because you are giving up, but simply so you have room to try something new.
Let the emotions go, let go of whatever is holding to your previous plan, and take a breather.
