It Is What It Is

It is what it is. Nothing is good or bad, but thinking makes it so.
How often do you judge what you are going thru versus simply allowing it to be? It is our assignment of a thing that gives it power. If you allow that what is happening simply is, then you take away it’s power. If you say it means xyz, you give it the power to ruin your mood/day/experience. 
You can prep for an event and create your reality to a degree, but ultimately, sometimes things happen and it doesn’t mean anything unless you say it does. You are not omnipotent; you can’t always control the outcome. In fact, you can never control it, you can simply visualize and do what you can, then let go, and surrender. How you handle things when they go “wrong” says a lot. The more you can center, breathe, and bring yourself back to the present moment, the more smooth the outcome can become. 
This does not mean abdicating responsibility and leaving everything to chance. You create your reality so be aware of your beliefs/thoughts/attitudes and change them where needed. However, sometimes no matter how much we prep, we need to allow that while we create our reality, there are circumstances outside of our control. And sometimes there are bigger picture issues happening. Do not take it personally when things don’t go your way and don’t make a story about it. Accept it and make the best of the situation, even if it’s upsetting. Especially if it’s upsetting! 
What is today can be very different tomorrow, but you can’t change it without accepting it first. It simply is, what it is.
