(“Accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what will be.” ~Sonia Ricotti)
I hate my life! It’s a phrase that’s used by teenagers and adults alike. Sometimes we use them for dramatic effect and sometimes, literally.
HERE
are five things I’ve learned so far on my journey of accepting a life that isn’t fair and never will be.
are five things I’ve learned so far on my journey of accepting a life that isn’t fair and never will be.1. Recognize the problem.
Sometimes we have to make a choice: pretend that nothing is wrong and then continually deal with the consequences, or acknowledge the problem and face it head-on.
2. Do something about it.
When life changes, it BECOMES necessary to become aware that there are always more choices. They might not be the choices we want, but there are always choices. Open your mind, look around, and you’ll find many more courses of action than the obvious ones in front of you.

In fact, altruism is ONE of the main factors in achieving happiness, according to a book I read calledWhat Happy People Know by Dan Baker.

Just think, by asking for help you may actually be helping the other person.
4. Take ownership.
It’s important to learn skills from people who have more experience with YOUR problem, but it’s up to you to put them into action. It will be scary at first doing them on YOUR own, but the more you do it the more confident you will become.

These are five steps to accept you are not where (or who) you want to be.
Acknowledge the fact that you might have to come up with another plan. Before you know it, you may find yourself thinking about the past and wondering why you didn’t want it to change, because your present definitely works better.
Finally, “Accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what will be.” ~Sonia Ricotti
