“It’s getting better all the time.”   Getting Better, The Beatles

It really IS always getting better. Even when it’s getting worse, it’s really getting better.

When you lose a job, you invite the opportunity for a better career. When you end a relationship, you open the door to a better one. When you become ill, your desire for health skyrockets, and leads you to behaviors that will bring better health. Every obstacle exposes an opportunity. Every setback helps you clarify what you desire in a more focused way. Each time you find something you don’t like, you clarify what you do like.

There is always more. Wherever you are at there is always expansion available, always more for you, always “better” waiting for you.

It is always easier to look back and see the blessing that a challenge brought you. The trick is to be aware that the “better” is right around the corner… you don’t have to wait until later to appreciate it. Be open to it right away.

Even when it feels worse in this moment, trust that it is really all just getting better!
