Have you ever had something go majorly wrong in life --a disaster? Like a leaking underground water pipe that rang up a thousand dollar plus bill without you knowing, only then to cost you a few more thousand to dig out and replace? Like failing an interview or exam that was going to make or break your life? Or twisting your ankle in the final of your own Olympic equivalent? What was your disaster? Looking back, was it the disaster you thought it was? Or did it create space for something you had never imagined possible? In fact, what is a disaster? Is it what happens? Or is it how you receive it? So next time something goes majorly wrong, after you catch your breath, smile and ask "What if this is better than I can imagine?" Then with no expectation, keep smiling and breathing. At the very least, you'll avoid the stress and frown lines.

Indeed! What a great tidbit to use. Recently going through a big business trial and yet all the while I have been thinking it has been a very good thing on a number of levels.
