With the pace of change continuing to accelerate, the future is not what it used to be. From one moment to the next, no one can be certain of anything. Your job, your marriage, and your relationship to your children - none of these may be the same next year, next month, or even next week.
How does one survive this changing landscape? First, by being flexible and adaptable - ready to change course at any moment. Be prepared to "roll with the punches" and release your old attachments or current expectations.
Second, practice living one day at a time. Realize that the only thing you can really affect is how you feel this instant. By focusing on the present moment, you can continue to experience peace and joy - no matter how the outer circumstances may change.

I feel so blessed to have pretty much lived my life in occupations that have a great deal of unsecurity and uncertainty. And by blessed, I mean that it has taught me that life in general in uncertain.
At first it really bothered me, but then I realized that it was great training in being flexible and adaptable to whenever my life changes course; rolling with the punches.
I can't say that it's always easy, because it's not. But it's given me more courage to trust in the bigger picture.
Living one day at time.
FABULOUS post, Mel! One I needed to RE-hear!
So, thank you!
