Some of the toughest times we can have are when we cannot see things from a different perspective or from someone else’s point of view. We remain at a standstill, stuck and unable to move forward.  The most frustrating and debilitating part is being aware that we are stuck and believing that we cannot and will not be able to move forward.  Well, the good news is that with (1) willingness and (2) committed work, getting unstuck and seeing someone else’s point of view is possible.  Here is how to do it. 

Sometimes, we have unexpected bad days that come out of nowhere.  Our computer crashes deleting hours of hard work.  A fire drill at work derails all of our plans.  We get into a fight with a family member.  Often, when these things happen, we fall into the trap of ruminating in our head for much more time than we should.  Here’s how to keep a bad day from becoming two or three bad days.
