OH Shit

OH Shit

When was the last time you had an "OH Shit" moment - probably not too long ago. "OH Shit" moments come in two flavors - good shit and bad shit. A good "OH Shit" moment is when you hit the lottery. "OH Shit, I can't believe I hit the lottery." A bad "OH Shit" moment is when you lose your wallet. "OH Shit my wallet must have dropped out of my bag."

In life, the more good shit moments you have the happier your life becomes. However, in life, the more bad shit moments you have the more negative your life becomes. Sooo, how do you create more good shit moments? 

One simple answer is DON'T DO BAD SHIT! Don't we all wish it was as simple as that? Take it from me, life is never that simple. Shit happens no matter how hard we try to avoid bad shit. A wallet falling out of your pocket is only the tip of the iceberg. Someone backing into your car is a bad "OH Shit" moment. The doctor telling you the dot on your lungs is cancer is a really bad "OH Shit" moment.

Sooo, unless you do stupid things like driving high on crack and smashing your car into a pole, you can't completely stop bad shit from happening. Therefore, that leaves us with only one solution - your happiness depends on how you react and then act on the bad shit.

This may be hard to accept, but it's your actions that will determine if a bad "OH Shit" moment will ruin your happiness. Believe it or not, you are in control to never say "OH Shit" when bad shit happens. Someone hits your car, get it fixed. Someone steals your wallet, replace it. Someone cheats you out of money, live with it and never put yourself in that position again.

On the other hand, you are also in control when good shit happens. Don't just think how lucky you are when you experience a good "OH Shit" moment - believe you deserve it. Never forget a good shit moment especially when you go through a bad shit moment. Pile up all your good shit moments in your brain so you can focus yourself on all the good shit that has happened in your life.  

Now, that's the real secret of a happy life.

If you haven't noticed, by the time this blog is finished, I will have said "shit" thirty two times. That a lot of shit.

Sooo, make sure you deal with the bad shit and focus your life on the good shit.
