You have been driving for an important meeting for one hour. The destination is still one hour away and you stuck in a traffic jam. A long queue of vehicles, making noise of unnecessary horns, you have not moved more than few meters for last half an hour. You secretary, manager and finally you client starts calling you. You are losing your patience. You have made enough preparation, for meeting starting from presentation to timely start of the same. You are just frustrating as all your efforts are going in vain. You are going to miss the meeting and possibly the opportunity. Situation is not in your control at any how. What will you do now?
You have many options to do. You can start quarrelling with others, blaming the roads and government and even to your luck, get frustrated, get excited and loose your temperament, and many more. But before you start doing any of this, just think of one question. “Will it change the conditions?” And if the answer is no, why should you harm your mind and body? Many times in our life, situation will not be in our control. If we cant change them we should change our attitude. Just look over the situation from other angles and let that supreme decide your fate in this situation.
Like same way, there are more than 6 billion people in this world, not every one of them will adjust with you, if you want to exist with them just adjust with them. Change your thoughts; never try to change the situation or the people. You will be one more example of failed life in this case.
