Sometimes we want something so badly only to be disappointed. Disappointment doesn’t mean we lost or failed. It only means the one specific thing we wanted wasn’t available to us at this moment. It was some one else’s turn. A different way to think about it is to reflect on why we wanted it. What was it that excited us? If we still feel the juice for what we badly wanted, we can ask ourselves what we are willing to sacrifice to get what we wanted. If we’re not willing to make the needed sacrifice, we don’t have enough juice. It’s best to cast aside the disappointment and search for something that sets our hearts afire.

“Many times the wrong train took me to the right place (Paulo Coelho).” Have you ever had a great disappointment? I have. I’ve wanted something so bad and when I didn’t get it, it felt like someone kicked me in the stomach. The funny thing about it, in hindsight, I was happy it didn’t happen. Something much better came to me. I had to wait longer for it to knock on my door, It was worth the wait. Disappointed over not getting something you wanted? Wait, something better is coming your way. It will knock on your door when you’re ready for it. Make sure you answer the door.
