Frustration

When was the last time anything went exactly as we expected ?
Frustration defined is the feeling of being upset or annoyed, especially because of inability to change or achieve something.

Frustration causes a downward spiral of negativity… mostly upon oneself. And the effects can lead to anger and rage unto other.

Frustration is the response to physical or psychological stress brought on by challenges with unmet expectations or desired goals, obstacles , changes occurring and setbacks. The reality faced takes you to a place of negativity resorting to a lack of confidence, doubts and fears. Ultimately it comes when we don’t get what we want.

Take a step back… this is when your reaction is your mind telling you that it’s time to seek an alternative. Allow yourself to explore other possible alternatives while you figure out why your strategy is currently ineffective. The more open and flexible you are to options , the better it may be to accept some changes that are out of your control and comfort level- therefore keeping you away from a downward spiral of self negativity that leads to anger and resentment.

Sound advice…
Focus on the outcome – not the obstacles… it may take more time and a perhaps a different way, but you’re learning to achieve and work towards patience and understanding as you build confidence.
