Things happen unplanned. Things may go wrong inspite of best planning. Decades ago , in such situations it used to be fretting, fuming, getting angry, getting abusive with words.
Things happened as they had to. Anger also subsided but relationships with people around got strained.
Years passed, some maturity came, some wisdom was added due to daily experiences. Self development books and religion taught to take responsibility for each and every situation you are in. Once you do that, you move towards solutions, your own growth as an individual happens.
Now the style changes. Any situation whether good or unfavourable, first question is –what best i can do in this situation? once done , the next thought is What’s next ?
Life is not getting tired throwing all sorts of challenges and I am not getting tired asking What’s next?
So as someone asks what is the first thought in mind – I reply- what’s next?
