Are you ready for the unpredictable?

Ok, you can unfurrow your brows now.

Obviously you can’t be ready for the unpredictable because you don’t know what’s going to happen next.

Or can you?

What if there was a way to always be prepared for the unpredictable?

What if you could find a way to remain steady in the face of unpredictability?

There’s always a gap in time or space between an unpredictable event and your response, and you can learn to manage that space.

The key is to make the moments between the event and your response work to your advantage. And it starts with a decision.

Although at times it might not seem as though you don’t have time to decide how you’re going to respond, the reality is that you do. It’s just that in most cases you default to how you’ve always responded.

Practice not responding. Literally when you see or hear something, don’t respond.  Or respond in the opposite to how you would normally do so.

Quick caveat, you don’t have to tell anyone you’re doing this. This is just practice for you.

The more you practice the better you’ll become at handling unpredictable situations because you’ll learn that almost always it’s your response to the event rather than the event itself.

Also keep in mind that you’re already great at handling the unpredictable, it’s just the size of the unpredictable events that throws most people off.
