Laughter is the best medicine! Imagine laughing in the face of fear! How would it affect your enemy? This reminds me of Harvey Specter’s famous dialogue in the series ‘Suits’ – “What are your choices when someone puts a gun to your head? You take the gun, or you pull out a bigger one, Or you call their bluff, or you do any of a hundred and forty-six other things?
Talking about myself, I would probably freak out and forget all the gutsy talk I must’ve fed my mind with zillions of times for situations like these.
But, here we are not talking about ‘someone else pointing the gun’ but your own gun pointing back at you. Your own mistakes, your own failures, and your very own good intentions backfired. And that is surely no laughing matter.
Once again, mere gutsy talk won’t help. It’s time to act, time to gear up for challenges, stand up for yourself and not let your situation or your apprehensions trample you along the way.
