A question I’m asked from time to time is “do you have any regrets or what would you do differently if you knew what you know now?” I’ve thought about this quite a bit and come to the realization that everything has worked out exactly as it should be. At the time I may have preferred a different outcome, but not anymore. Every experience is either a lesson or a gift.

We’re in the midst of another COVID flare up and that has many people are on edge. I think it’s important in times like these to remember the words of Victor Frankl, a noted Austrian neurologist, psychiatrist, philosopher, author, and Holocaust survivor: “Our greatest freedom is the freedom to choose our attitude”. Choose yours wisely.

Negative self-talk and pessimism are a vicious cycle, and a drain on your confidence. Focus on your positive attributes instead of perceived weaknesses; focus on your accomplishments rather than on your perceived failures. Keep focused on what is working instead of what is not working.
