Key To Your Happy

Been working with FB ads. Ugh! That’s all I can say.

I realized recently that I was letting FB (and the decision makers lurking in their shadows) keep the key to my happy.

Sound a bit dramatic?

Thoughts such as…When _________ happens, then I will be happy, figuratively gives an outside entity the key to your happy.

My FB ads have been approved and I celebrate and am soooo happy!!

Then within an hour or so…my ad is disabled and my ad is “in review”. Sad.

This went back and forth for a few weeks. On (happy) Off (sad).

Funny how it took me a few rounds to realize. Wait! FB is not an entity I want to trust with my happy key.

And so I took it back.

I decided that thoughts of success were going to be something I want to control.

Sure, we can choose to be happy when awesome occurs and not so happy when it doesn’t.

What I have decided is that I want to always be the one in possession of my happy key. It is a big responsibility and one that should not be taken lightly.

What happens if we are careless with said key?? …it can be lost for a time.

Or if we hand it over to someone else then we don’t have access to our happy as long as they hold the key.

I HATE lost keys!

But, if yours is lost it helps to have someone help you search for it. I can help you. I am good at search parties.

In the mean time, my friends—

Hold on to yours and I will hold on to mine.
