Madalas ka bang mainip? Nakakapagsabi ka ba ng mga negative words dahil sa inis, galit, at pagkapikon when things don’t go your way? Nasusubukan ba nito ang iyong pasensiya?
Halimbawa, kapag traffic sa EDSA:
“Nakakaasar talaga ‘tong traffic na ‘to! Nakakasira ng araw!”
“Minsan, sa sobrang inis, mapapasigaw ka na lang!”
You know what our current traffic situation reminds me of? L-I-F-E.
Traffic makes us realize how important patience is.
Lalo na sa mga bagay tulad ng…
- Promotion,
- Financial freedom o makawala sa utang,
- Makapundar ng sariling bahay at lupa,
- Or any goals that we want to have for ourselves…
When things are not happening based sa sarili nating timeline, para bang nawawalan tayo ng pasensiya at gana kung minsan. Kung pwede lang, makuha mo ka-agad-agad ang mga gusto mo.
But then again, if patience is not present, we will not be able to see what’s really waiting for us out there. Kung mamadaliin natin ang lahat, malalagpasan natin ang mga aral na pwede nating matutunan along the way.
There are lessons that we can learn.
LEARN HOW TO ANTICIPATE AND ADJUST
Iwasan na natin ‘yung ma-traffic na area.
Pwede naman tayong gumamit ng Waze para makita ang mga lugar na dapat iwasan. Ganoon din sa buhay. Dapat matuto tayong umiwas at mag-adjust sa mga bagay na nakakapagbigay sa atin ng stress.
LET GO OF THE THINGS WE CANNOT CONTROL
Traffic is one thing we can’t control. Ganoon din sa buhay. Bakit mo pipilitin na ayusin ang mga bagay na hindi naman natin kayang ayusin, tulad ng traffic? One of the most frustrating things we can do is trying to control things that we can’t.
LEARN HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF IT
Imbis na magreklamo, ginagamit ko na lang ang oras sa traffic para magbasa, mag-aral, at magsulat ng blog katulad nito. Sinusulat ko itong blog na ito sa gitna ng traffic sa Makati.
I will never allow traffic to steal my joy and peace in life. Instead of complaining about it, I adjust and make the most out of it.
THINK. REFLECT. APPLY.
Are you able to anticipate and adjust?
Are you trying to control people or situations in your life that is beyond your control?
Are you able to make the most out of situations like being stuck in traffic?
