Does it feel like you've been dealt a crappy hand?
Jan 07, 2026Sometimes it can feel like our life situation is just a crappy hand we are dealt. Here's a couple of tips that can help shift this perspective.
First of all, we want to make sure the "hand" we're dealing with is actually something that is out of our control. We can find ourselves thinking we are stuck with the hand, that the situation is out of our control. We want to look closely at exactly what we cannot control and what we can. We want to take full responsibility for every piece we can control.
Second, we want to look at our focus. Are we simply focused on how unfair our hand is. How terrible it is. How much energy are we putting toward resenting and resisting the reality. A simple shift of this focus from this negative thinking to either thinking less about it or thinking more positively, can expand our energy. This energy that we spend thinking negatively takes away from energy that we could use to create a different experience. Our thoughts, our focus, is always within our control. We get to decide.
It can be so easy to slip into the trap of thinking we were just dealt a crappy hand. These tips can help you break free from this trap!
