Second Chance to Live

Empowering the Individual, Not the Brain Injury

Do I want to be right or Do I want to be happy? Video Presentation

December 12, 2014 By Second Chance to Live

Do I want to Be Right or Do I want to be Happy?
Do I want to Be Right or Do I want to be Happy?

Several days ago I wrote Do I want to be right or Do I want to be happy? Today I would like to share the article with you in video format. I create video presentations of my articles to make the information available to individuals who learn through listening and watching. I wrote this article to share a principle that I learned and was able to apply in a situation that I did not like and did not think was fair. In hind’s sight, I am thankful that I took the action that I speak about in this article…

For I have gotten better results. I realized that being right was not going to make me happy. With this realization, I made the decision to move my bed to the other side of my bedroom.

Below is a brief excerpt from the article, as the article is short.

“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 something 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 something that I have heard, “Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?”.
