Every few days we see someone on Facebook complaining about a charge or fine they’ve got.

 

Asking for advice on ‘how to get out of it’.

 

Despite the fact that they chose to park there in the first place.

 

Or to drive that fast.

 

Or do whatever caused the charge or fine.

 

Our actions have consequences.

 

We chose to do certain things then we shouldn’t be surprised or annoyed by what then happens.

 

We choose to eat unhealthily………

 

Then we shouldn’t be surprised or annoyed when we become less healthy and / or gain weight.

 

People often complain about taxes too.

 

Sure, it would be nice if we didn’t have to pay them.

 

Nearly half of our turnover here goes straight out in VAT, rates, taxes and so on.

 

We’d love it if that wasn’t the case.

 

But that’s life.

 

Complaining won’t help.

 

In the same way that it is ‘just life’ that certain things will make us more unhealthy / fatter.

 

And it is ‘just life’ that some people seem to be less affected by this.

 

You know – ‘have better metabolisms’ or ‘are able to eat what they like’.

 

None of these things will change.

 

########### But we can help you with how to work round that – myrise.co.uk/briefing-meeting ##########

 

Being annoyed by them will change precisely nothing.

 

Like it or not, our lives are governed by certain rules.

 

Sure, some rules can be challenged.

 

Some are made to be broken.

 

But some are just ‘what they are’.

 

They won’t change.

 

Accept them and just do what needs to be done so that you get what you want.

 

It really is as simple as that!

 

 

Much love,
