3 Minute Retreat: Perspective

How do you first view a situation when it first presents itself to you?

Do you react immediately without pause?

Do you fail to see the beauty, the positive or the gift in the situation that is in front of you within the moment at hand?

It is so easy to get caught up in situations that we can't physically change. It is stubbornness at its best. But think about it. You are being given this situation. You can be stubborn and let it get the best of you for it isn't what you had wanted, or you can choose to look at it in a different light.

You can come at it with negativity, or you can choose to look at it from every angle that it presents and find the one that works to your benefit. 

When we take the time to pause and look at a situation in a different light, a different perspective, one may just be receiving more than they ever thought possible from that gift. We may find that we are open to change a narrative or perspective and we eventually fall into what is meant to be for us in that moment.

What perspective will you choose?
