This week, our topic is HANDLING DIFFICULTY.  Dealing effectively with adversity begins with being grounded.  Consider, please:

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too:
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise . . .
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And – which is more, you’ll be a Man, my son.
Rudyard Kipling
Excerpted from If

“Keeping our heads” is a skill that can be enhanced with practice through meditation, concentration and focus.  Experiment with moving away from doubting and toward trusting yourself and your life.
