When You're Down

5/4/2015

0 Comments

 

This is the time of year when school districts all around the country are making difficult decisions. For one reason or the other, educators are not brought back and programs are cut for the next school year. It's quite amazing how change can whack people right across the face. Some say they never saw it coming or have a hard time understanding how certain decisions are made. The fact remains that people must stand tall and turn a negative into a positive. Here are some ways to cope with situations that come up this time of year......

Focus on the tremendous work you do each day.

Speak with those you can count on to listen.

Embrace the disbelief and anger that is currently consuming your life.

Reflect in a blog post to make sense of the situation.

Hang with your family or have a catch with your child.

Understand that you can not out-think people who are not thinking.

Have those tough conversations with the decision-makers in your life.

Know that better opportunities are just around the corner.

Participate in a Twitter chat to lift your spirits.

Enjoy your current surroundings knowing they will be different in the near future.

Listen to music that gets you pumped up.

Take your dog for a walk.

Figure out how to get better at what you do.

Mow the lawn and do a little landscaping.

Time heals most wounds.
