The "Oh That's Life" Mentality

When we face disappointments or tough times, people will usually say, "Oh that's life."  When there is something bad that happens and we feel like there is no solution people will say, "Well that's life, things happen.  We can't always get everything we want."

For years this is what we have been told and taught.  But is it really enough?  Should be just accept things as they are?  I think in some cases you might not be able to change what has happened.  So in that case you need to accept.  But there are times where we can make a difference.  We do not have to accept the "Oh that's life" mentality.  There are times when we can make a different decision and change things. 

Don't always just accept that things have to be the way they are.  Everything is subject to change.  And if you really set your mind to it, you can make a significant change in your life and the circumstances around you.
