Sometimes it is hard to see that the present is perfect, especially when it doesn’t look perfect at the time. Take a few minutes to write down a challenging situation that happened five years or more ago so you have some perspective. Now that you are looking back, how was that situation perfect? Did you learn something valuable? Did it make you change your life for the better? Did you take a different path in life? Are you stronger and wiser now as a result? How was this situation, as difficult as it may have been at the time, actually perfect?
Challenging situation:
How was it perfect?
Great! Now, when you are faced with a challenging situation in the future, you can trust that it is indeed going to be perfect as well. It’s all perfect, even the bad stuff!
