Are you playing all your (life) cards?


Will you play this round with the best of intensions and with a winning attitude?


Life is not like a card game; however, we do have to play with what we have in front of us. It is better when we understand the process and when to move ahead and when to stand back. As Kenny Rogers sang, “We have to know when to hold them and know when to fold them”. There is a strategy to life, just as there is in a game of cards. It can take time to move ahead and we learn from previous plays or in real terms from previous decisions.


As in a game of cards, life will throw us twists and turns and sometimes we can make things work and other times we just must accept that this is just the way things are. Attitude as mentioned countless times before is a big part in the process and we can fight the inevitable and feel frustrated or we can change our attitude and life then seems more promising.


Some individuals seem to be dealt a winning hand while others have many struggles along their life’s path. Do not compare your journey to others’ journeys. You only know what you see and there is much more to someone’s life than what is on the surface. Focus on your life and ask yourself, “what can I do to make things easier or better” and more importantly “what did I learn from this experience?” There are always lessons. Be ready to learn.


Accept your life in the moment and be open to something favorable coming your way. Formulate an action plan that will build momentum in your favor as you move along. You can expect delays and shortcomings, but you can also expect rewards and benefits you may never had dream of.


We can only play the cards we are dealt. What can you do to make the best of what you have in the moment? Tomorrow is another day; it is always a whole new story.


Remember your perception has a big influence on how you feel. If it is less than ideal, make alterations to your expectation and your focus.


Life might not seem as though it is in your hands but you have full control of your attitude and focus.


You do have a winning hand!

A Winning Hand


We have all heard the old saying that the hard lessons are the ones we remember. During the smooth times it seems there are few lessons to learn but why is this so?


Do we just float through the good times without recognizing they are blessings?


Can we learn from our positive experiences or does life have to be challenging for us to recognize our lessons?


If we realize how fortunate we are and appreciate our life’s experience (challenging or not), lessons are still being taught. We know the value of appreciation. We recognize the abundance that flows from these periods and are grateful. This too is a valuable lessons and teaches us to appreciate what life sends our way.


Let’s give the same amount of focus to these easy flow periods as we do to our challenging periods.


In knowing and understanding that the flow of life does change with the amount of focus we give to certain events in our lives, it is important to pay closer attention to what we refer to as “good times”.


Energy grows and focus builds. I believe we have acknowledged a valuable lesson today!

Life lessons do not have to be hard
There are no regrets in life just lessons



Life’s learning process is extensive and ongoing; it is a continuous process.


We may not be aware of the learning potential within our everyday experience. Nonetheless, opportunities are present even in the relatively simple, mundane routines and at other times, are obviously present in the over-amplified lessons. Learning is not always an easy process, and it seems that the more difficult the challenge the greater the lesson.


We always have options along the way. Either we accept and learn or we fight the process, place blame and struggle because of these practices.


We may build on life experiences with an attitude that substitutes anger and guilt for acceptance and knowledge. We take responsibility for our life and recognize that these challenges are our stepping-stones to growth.


It may not appear that way as we move through rapids of grief and torrents of pain, but over time these rapids relax into meandering streams of acceptance. Acceptance can become our life raft of strength, and we are able to endure any storm that comes our way.


We are here to explore the ebbs and flows of life’s lessons that need to be confronted and learned. Go with the flow when it is a requirement. Change when change is essential. Fight the fight if that is what is required and walk your road knowing that all obstacles will be met head on and conquered.
