I Tripped when I put on my
panties today….
Yep, and not only did I trip, I fell on my buttox and bruised my cheeks and you wonder why women don’t want to wear high heels? We can’t even put our panties on without falling down!
My partner called me this morning and had this tone in her voice … you know that tone when you’re in trouble but you don’t know what you did…but you know you did something and you know that something wasn’t good. Yeah, that one.
It’s the tone of disappointment and frustration right before that special someone in your life who you really admire says, “Put your big girl panties on and deal with it Nic!”
I Need Some Perspective Here Sister
I had made a big deal out of something that really wasn’t and was easily solved, but sincerely bothering me to the extent that I just freaked out because I couldn’t figure it out. Sound familiar? Oh No! Not you too?!!
Stop! Breathe! Inhale! Exhale! Inhale! Exhale! Ok, now put one foot in the hole and step through the big girl panties. Easy now, don’t trip.
Mmmmmmm….is this the m.o.? Making a big deal out of a banner? Seriously? Get a grip Nic! Was it because of my problems I was experiencing the past two days, two weeks, three years, 5 years, or maybe that I felt like the whole world was crashing down on me? Maybe it was because I hadn’t taken a deep breath before I sent another email? All of the above and every other check box on the quiz.
My big girl panties had shrunk along with the size of my brain capacity at the time of writing that email. It happens.
Insert foot into mouth here
My partner told me a story about her j.o.b. which she’s really good at and just worked on a project for over 4 months and was told this by her team members,
“hey, ummm….that project you’ve been working on? you know the one you’ve been toiling over for months and months, hours and hours? yeah, that one. well, we’re gonna scratch it and go to something else and can you do this bigger and more hairy eye balled project for us instead? And, can you have it done by…well, really really soon?”
All of a sudden, my little banner fiasco that really isn’t such a big deal anyway because there’s another redirect I can use evidently, well, it became an embarrassment. Oh good grief, Nic, did you even think that there are other people out there who have had just as many trials and tribulations as you? Well, goodness NO! God Bless their little hearts.
Why Do I Feel The Urge To Embarrass Myself by Telling You This Story?
Because, it’s the simple-dumb of how out of kilter things may seem in our lives and how into our own little worlds we continue to fester more often than we care to admit.
When we can’t find the solution we tend to blame or become frustrated in our attempts to keep our thinking along the same lines as the problem instead of working it out where we find a solution. Perspective is illusory in this state of mind.
I’m not the only one that’s culpable of this thought process. You are too, and if you think you’re not, then you seriously need to check yourself. No, I’m not kidding. Yes, that’s a call out on your b.s. that you’re telling yourself. We have all done this and we continue to do this to inhibit ourselves from succeeding.

And for You Know Who’s Sake Pull up Your Trousers and Get to NESIII!!
You can succeed if you seriously want to make a change.
Get to the NESIII event and make the change to succeed. Not everyone is a millionaire in this business, but there are some who are making quite a decent living and creating quite a decent lifestyle with what they do in this business. Some of them started where you are, some started further along. It doesn’t really matter all that much. What does matter is that you pull up your trousers and you give yourself an opportunity to create a better life for yourself; the life you’re dreaming of right now.

You are so right Nicole , it ALL starts with state of mind, otherwise your perspective gets clouded!
And taking the time to write emails about the little problems only perpetuates them and passes the associated negative energy to the receiver of that email, when they themselves have their struggles as we all do!
Thank you for your insights and passing along this lesson to others! I frequently have to check myself when things get hairy and realize we all have to keep plugging if we are to successfully create our own economy – the learning is in the journey, and it's up to us to help and support others in theirs with our combined wisdom!
Great post!
Vicki
