Turn Those Wrongs Into Rights
By Kimberley Cohen
I’m sure you’ve had those days, weeks, months, or even years where things seem to be going wrong.
You might start to believe that they aren’t going to get any better or may never change, right?
Wrong. Sometimes situations can’t be changed, but how we view them can.
When you can turn something wrong into something right, wow, what a step in the right direction.
Life is filled with personal and professional challenges that offer us opportunities to truly see there’s more than what lies on the path that is before us.
These trials are really blazing the trail of uncharted territories and can seem scary at the time, even down right life altering. Emotions can run high like a river after a hard winter’s thaw.
When feelings take over, it can seem frightening, overwhelming, debilitating, and confusing, like you’ve lost your way. Guess what? You have, only temporarily though, until you find a new way.
Take notice of what’s surfacing and/or causing stress and suffering for you. The moment you recognize this it becomes the first step to making things right in your life again.
These upsets, setbacks, glitches, confusions, wrong doings, etc., are giving you insights, new directions, new ways of thinking, being, and doing things. They are opportunities for turning something wrong into something right.
They are teaching you something you may not have otherwise recognized. They are showing you something, trying to get your attention, testing you so to speak.
We can’t always control the circumstances and outcomes in life, but we can choose how we will handle what has come our way.
The key to dealing with something going wrong is to begin to see what’s going right.
Maybe you have a great support system of friends, family, loved ones, co-workers, nurses, etc., or perhaps you learn something about yourself or the problem that you didn’t see before, or possibly you were in need of a change and the circumstances have led you there a little sooner than you anticipated.
If you look for the good in your life and surroundings, it helps keep your focus upon the gifts that God gives us every day. They are there even on the days that seem like they aren’t.
Norman Vincent Peale said, "If you want things to be different, perhaps the answer is to become different yourself".
The next time you are up against something that seems to be going wrong or not the way you intended, you have a choice of how and what you can do. You never know what’s around the corner or down the next path.
Remember, when you encounter a problem, there is also a possibility waiting for you.
The Insight Technique™ assists you in seeing the rights in the wrongs.
You can spend your life being a victim to people and circumstances, or a victor over them, but isn’t it wonderful that you have a choice of being victorious within them.
Learn how The Insight Technique™ can help you transform the old mindsets and beliefs that are holding you back from living the life you desire and deserve.
Life has this miraculous way of waking us up to the three positions we can take in any given moment. Remember being the victim, the victor, or the victorious, are not who you are, rather the positions you choose to take.
The victims often get stuck in the wrongs, or what’s not working in their lives instead of focusing on the rights and what is working.
The victors generally are so busy turning wrongs into rights that they miss what’s going on internally since their focus is external.
The victorious understand that the only thing truly wrong is their belief that something is.
Your Insight Assignment:

Each day try to find something positive; the Universe is filled with them.
