Desperation can make you do things you will live to regret all your life.
What is desperation?
Being in a situation that you can’t control but you wish to change it at all cost. A situation that you feel neglected, unhappy, helpless and you at all cost want to change it so has to be happy.
While trying you change it, you end up making decisions beyond your limit, most times do things you will never have done if the reverse was the case.
Show me a man in his desperation state and I will tell you how he lives regretting his actions.
Example of desperation
I have a friend who wants to be rich at all cost so no matter what you say, you can’t talk her out of it, she started living a luxury life, far beyond her budget, she will tell me I have class, I’m a big girl, I will just laugh and most times caution her which she will never take it to heart. One day her rent got expired, she needed money to pay her rent, she tried all her big friends so to say and none seems to help her so her only hope out of desperation was her iPhone, she market it and unfortunately for her the guys played with her desperation and dupe her of her phone showing her a fake alert and with the mindset that her problem is solved she gave the phone and receipt to them. She went home happy, but when she narrated the story to me I told her she was scammed there she became uncomfortable, unhappy, regretting and blaming herself then she knew her desperation was to high to blind her head to think, now she lost her phone and the rent she tried to control is still there.
Ways to control uncontrollable situations that leads to desperation
Stay calm, stay positive, look beyond the situation, don’t think about what others will say, give yourself rest while thinking and let the situation be if you can’t change it to avoid a long lasting regret.
Remember too much desperation leads to depression and depression is not good for your health.
What you can’t change leave it and live your life above it.
Happy new month friends, love you all.
