Finding the Good in the Negative - Ask, "what do I do about this?"

"What do I do about this?"This question is one that can trigger action, even in a moment of pain. When we make a clear decision about how we are going to react to our situation, we immediately change the narrative from "this is happening to me" to "this is what I'm choosing to do." This agency is critical to processing and managing difficult situations, and it will change how we relate to our experiences for the better.๐Ÿ™ Today's Episode is Brought To you by: RetoolBuild internal tools, remarkably fast.
