Facing the Hard Times...

Life is not easy. Enough said, but facing that fact with your life and emotions is not so cut and dry. When the challenges come, you can get so distracted. You concentrate on the immediate and you forget the life goals and people around you. I get that way, do you?

The saying "You can't see the forest for the trees" is so true. We lose sight of the big picture when we fixate on a problem alone. We forget responsibilities when we lock in on the hardship only.

I am trying to change that. I have ADD and it is hard to concentrate on many things anyway. But we can eliminate overlooking things and people that matter by keeping a focus on what really matters.

Problems come and they also go. Many times all our attention on one thing was really not warranted. We didn't need to fixate at all because the problem worked itself out.

Just a thought and what I'm working on in my life.
