My sucker has been in the dirt lately.. a lot more than I’d care to admit.
I’m normally pretty good at putting a positive spin on things.
Finding a lesson in whatever is going on.
Taking a step back and focusing on the bigger picture.
Etc.
I’ve spent years working on my mental game and how to shift my perspective.
It’s okay to feel things deeply.
It means I also feel the good things deeply as well.
But I try to only let myself sit in those big feelings for a short time before shaking it off and carrying on.
But man, these horses are really trying me this year.
I love them. I love this life. I couldn’t give it up if I tried..
But if they don’t smarten up soon I’m going to need a box of Gastroguard.. for myself.
My crashout had a crashout the other day. Where I found myself upset over things piling up. Just one thing after another.
Then I found myself more upset that I allowed myself to get so upset?
So if we notice an influx of positive, feel good reels.. it’s because we’re in a fake it til ya make it stage of life, and I’m trying real hard to get to a positive Polly outlook.
Because peace and positivity doesn’t just happen. It’s something that most people are continuously working towards.. and I don’t think that’s talked about enough.
I used to think that happy, resilient people were just made that way.
But now I think it’s more of a skill set that one has to work towards.
