We live in a world of a million interpretations. We must resist staying stuck on just one. And especially, we must resist staying stuck on the most negative interpretation. This applies to the smallest of things (someone not answering an email) to the largest of things (a break up). Remember: Time not only heals – time reveals. Often you’ll discover things have happened for “a greater good” (you meet someone new) or there’s a completely different interpretation (your email got caught in their spam box – or they were on vacation!). So if right now you’re interpreting something in a negative way, take another look. See if you can see some of the other 999,999,999 interpretations for what happened! Take some time to answer the following: “What else can this mean?” “What’s a positive gain in my pain?” “What’s a blind spot in this I might not be seeing?”
