You can’t change the direction of the wind ,but you can adjust the sails

When you look at your life, you have to understand that you must take all the responsibility for where you are right now. Your current situation is the product of your thoughts and actions up to this point.

When you find yourself unhappy with the way things are going in your life it may be time to make a change. You can’t change the direction of the wind but you can change the way you face it and deal with it. The situation does not go away because you don’t look at it.

Look at what you want to change in your life and begin by finding a change within yourself in how you look at it, how you approach it. The situation, just like the sails of a boat shift against the wind, will have no choice but to also alter and change with you.

Change is hard.

It’s even harder when it’s a big change — breaking up with someone you love, leaving your old job, starting your own business, or hundreds of other difficult choices.

But even if it’s obvious that making a big change will be beneficial for us, it can be tough.

Overcoming Fear to Make Big Life Change

We often avoid making important decisions because we want more information before we make a tough call.

Yes, it’s certainly true that you need to do your research … but if you’re waiting for the crystal clear answer to come to you, then you’re going to be waiting a long time. As humans, we are curious creatures and our need for information can be paralyzing us.

Ask yourself, “What’s the worst that could happen?”

Once you realize the worst isn’t that bad, you’ll be ready to crush it.

Have enough courage to trust yourself. No matter what happens, you’ll figure out a way to make it work.

You can’t change the wind, but you can change your sails.

From this moment, you now have the awareness that you can change your emotions (sails) around any situation (wind) that has occurred in your life, and you can change the meaning to something that serves you and takes you in the direction you truly desire to go.
