“Every tomorrow has two handles.  You can take hold of the handle of anxiety or the handle of enthusiasm.  Upon your choice so will be the day.”  Anonymous

I am convinced that our thoughts create our reality.  How we think about the upcoming day becomes the day.  If we are filled with anxiety and fear for what may happen in any given day, those feelings will bring back to us more things to be fearful and anxious about during that day.  If we are approaching a new day with enthusiasm and joy, those feelings will return to us in the form of joyful events and happiness. 

I know that some days may be difficult to get through if you are facing conflict in your personal and/or business relationships.  Conflict can be a dark cloud hanging over your head.  However, if you reframe how you look at the conflict and change your thinking, it will be manageable and resolvable. 

Mediation is a way to resolve the conflict with the other person.  Working with a Mediator, can enhance your communication skills so that you can face any disagreements in the future with renewed confidence.

Another option to help with understanding and working through conflict in your life is Conflict Coaching.  In the coaching process, you examine your beliefs and feelings about conflict and how you can approach the other person in an effort to work together to resolve your differences.

We have a choice every day about how we look at our life and the events that happen.  We can choose the handle of joy or we can choose the handle of anxiety and fear.  What is your choice for today?
