Bettering Yourself – Week 28 – July 8-14, 2013 – Dealing With My Plan B

On Marilu Henner’s website, Marilu.com, I read this piece of wisdom:

One thing I’ve learned over the years is: “The key to your life is how you deal with Plan B.” You can aim for Plan A. You can arrange for Plan A. But “Plan B” is what actually happens to you. It’s your resilience in being able to roll with the punches and move on to Plan B that really makes your life.

If something doesn’t work out, you can’t automatically think that something bad has happened. You never know why things happen the way they do, but that’s life. That’s how it unfolds. When faced with Plan B, don’t feel you have to be dragged kicking and screaming into it because, sometimes, “Plan B” is so much better. This is definitely the number one theory I live by. It all comes down to resilience.

My bettering yourself challenge for this week, I am going to figure out how I am dealing with my Plan B.
