Instead of Why did this happen to me? I learned to ask, What am I learning right now? - Mastin Kipp

First, a master is a beginner who kept beginning

ONCE YOU COMMIT TO A PATH AND TAKE ACTION, THINGS start to change. Said another way, when the Uni-verse knows you are serious, it starts to move into action right along with you.

The first thing I do when I feel frustration is to allow myself to feel it. And then I immediately ask myself, What does this mean? And within seconds I find an empowering meaning. It means I’m learning and growing. It means something better is on the way. This is the contraction before the expansion. I work the problem and try to mine whatever I’m supposed to be learning from it. It can be very painful, but my meaning is: this is how you grow.
