Fit for Life: Problems for All

Fit for Life: Problems for All

A reporter on the news was wallowing about shortages in stores and what we are going to do about holiday shopping.

She was saying this like it was a catastrophe and the world was coming to an end.

From the tone of her voice, she sounded devastated by the situation.

In my opinion, this isn’t worth getting upset about. The stores being short on items to buy won’t really affect your life in a negative way, nor will it create any adversity or issues that will negatively impact you.

The reporter was doing her job by dramatizing the situation and creating a sense of panic in the air.

While I was watching, I was thinking about other topics that could be more newsworthy.

What about the obesity epidemic and getting people fit and healthy?

Shouldn’t that be a concern on the news?

Or how about the homeless population?

 

What is Important

The point I am trying to make is that most of us do not have our priorities straight and we worry about finding solutions for the wrong things.

On second thought, we worry too much period and rarely seek solutions for the problems we are faced with daily.

Someone was talking about the situation in Wisconsin during the week and asked me what I thought.

I replied that I’m more concerned about my ad budget and what I’m spending on marketing, and if it will connect and get me new leads from people needing our program.

I’m more concerned with keeping my members fit and healthy and training my team to keep them engaged and focused on the program. I’m more worried about making sure the business is flowing and I can pay my staff.

Actually, concerned & worried are the wrong choice of words.

I am not worried or concerned, but focused.

Therefore, I don’t have the time or the energy to get involved with or focus on something I can’t control.

And that’s the key.

 

Solutions Over Problems

Stay focused on the positive things that you can control, and stop worrying and expending energy on the things you can’t.

So that was my reply, I don’t get worked up or stressed out about things that are out of my control, or problems I can’t solve.

We all have enough of our own issues to concentrate on, and problems to solve that we shouldn’t be focusing on situations or distractions that are out of our reach.

I always try to focus on solutions over problems. Problems exist daily, and if you let them, they can cause stress, anxiety, and enable us to make excuses for not getting things done.

This requires a lot of energy, and we are better off exerting our energy on things that will make a positive impact on our lives, and not the things that don’t serve us.
