Hello and welcome back to Second Chance to Live my friend. I am happy to see that you decided to stop by to visit with me. Over the course of the past week I have been woken by neighbors. I attempted to resolve the matter in several ways unsuccessfully. I found myself being angry and frustrated at the neighbors and then I made a decision to do some thing different.
In the process of making the decision and executing the plan, I found myself continuing to be frustrated and angry. My thoughts were, “Why do I need to do something different, when these neighbors are not being considerate?”. In my frustration and anger. I remembered some thing that I have heard, “Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?”.
As I thought about this statement, I found myself empowered by what I could change. I could change my bedroom furniture to move my bed away from my bedroom window. In the process of moving my computer desk, work desk and bed, I found myself empowered by the things that I could change, instead of continuing to fight against what I am powerless to change — other people.
Process
In my anger and frustration, I realized that I had choices. I could continue to be angry and frustrated or I could do some thing different. I could choose to stay stuck, or I could choose to be happy. I could choose to get into action, by accepting the things that I could not change. I could choose to accept the things that I am powerless over — the way that neighbors behave — and I could choose to do something different to get different results. I could choose to use my time and energy in ways that would empower my life, instead of continuing to be angry and frustrated. I could choose to move my bedroom furniture, in order to move my bed further away from my bed room window. Consequently, I chose to change the things I could, and as a result I got a better nights rest.
