Have you been praying for an oppertunity to come your way so you could get out of a job you dont like or just improve your lifestyle? Then you find when that oppertunit comes along your mind is so cluttered with the daily worries that you cant concentrate enough to learn the new skills you need. Do you end up with the feeling that this is as good as it"s going to get so you might as well accept it and live with it? All of these feelings are just a rut we get in and some people never get out of. That does'nt have to be the way it is for you. You must learn to start liveing a stress free life. I know this sounds simple but it takes a few tools to acomplish. One of the first things that helped me was the wisdom in the words of the serenity prayer.
( God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things i can and the wisdom to know the difference. )
The key words in that prayer are, the wisdom to know the difference. You dont have to accept your lot in life if you arnt totally happy with it. You are free to change it. You must learn to free your mind of clutter and let the stress flow out. Practiceing this with meditation and the lesson in the serenity pray will clear you mind for learning the new skills you will need to accomplish those dreams you have. Remember a dream is just a dream till you take the actions to make it a reality.
