If everything goes wrong then so goes good

If everything goes wrong then so goes good

Sometimes you might feel like everything is going wrong, but when you look back on it, it often wasn't so bad. Out of the mud grows the lotus and from chaos comes order.

The perception is that everything goes wrong but is it? Have you ever thought that everything went right and it did indeed go right wrong? Maybe so too, so it wasn't that good then

If everything goes wrong then so goes good

Because of our limited view of things, we don't see everything. We literally see between 380 nanometers (violet) and 780 nanometers (red) and we don't even see everything in that color spectrum either.

But not only that, we often don't see the forest for the trees. The big picture only becomes clear in hindsight, and most of the time it was then very good that something happened.

So you can largely assume that if you feel like things are not going well now, in hindsight it was very good that it happened.

This is an interesting mindset, because every "mistake" is an opportunity to grow and get better. To address and thus become 'bigger' as a person, so to speak.

When you run away from that it often gets worse than you handle it. You then see people walk away from that one conversation or emotion for 20 years, when it could be resolved in a few hours if they addressed it.

Or learn a skill that would take them a few months and instantly make their lives a lot easier. Actually silly when you think about it that you wouldn't just tackle it.

But also smart because that way you avoid the pain of the short term. But yes soft healers often make stinking wounds.

So tackle that bite!
