It’s Not What You Think You Deserve, but It Is What It Is. So Deal With It.

It's up to you to make the most of the cards you hold. Don't waste time complaining.

Life is full of surprises.

That's what makes life so wonderful to live because you never know what's coming tomorrow. When things turn out in your favor, you won't even question it. You'll just go for it and treat these favorable events as if they were natural.

After all, you deserve it!

You may not even ask yourself the question. When everything is going well, you don't think, you just go for it and enjoy it.

And then, it will happen sometimes that the events do not turn in your favor. It is less pleasant. You will even have the impression that these unfavorable situations are the majority in your life.

It is above all a matter of perception because if you count with a cool head, you will see that life is rather fair in this respect.

Nevertheless, you will have to make do with the cards you hold at any given moment.

Some people will make the mistake of spending an inordinate amount of time complaining, "No, this is not what I deserve. If you haven't said this phrase yourself, you've probably heard it dozens, if not hundreds, of times.

First of all, you should know that the notion of merit does not mean much. There is no such thing as merit, it's just a matter of perception. You think that because you have done certain things that you consider positive, then you deserve something in return.

Seriously?

It's a matter of perception.

The reality is that it's not what you think you deserve, but it's what you're going to have to deal with. Whether you like it or not, these are the cards in your hand for this round.

Instead of wasting time complaining, you should accept these cards as soon as possible and look for the best strategies to take advantage of them in your life.

The people who win in life are not the ones who necessarily have the best cards, but rather the ones who know how to take the greatest advantage of them. You noted the poker reference here. Life can be similar to a poker game in many ways.

The next time an event that you feel is unfavorable happens to you, and it may happen sooner than you think, look to the future right away. This event has happened, and you are not going to be able to go back to the past. The present is here and it is only by acting in the present that you can build the future you want.

Your only objective must therefore be to act rather than to complain.

This is easier said or written than done, I grant you. However, if you make this effort on yourself, and you are capable of doing so, you will see that your life will instantly change positively.

Your vision of the world will be positive because it will be turned towards the search for solutions and not the complaints about the problems that are there and that you will have to deal with in any case to move forward.

It's up to you!
