When things are not going so well in life (business, personal, the economy, etc.), how we deal with setbacks will determine whether we will be overcome, or whether we’ll be over-comers.
Sometimes setbacks are due to a person’s emotional or mental makeup, and unless that's dealt with first, things can only get worse. Motivational speaker Zig Ziglar called it, Stinkin' Thinkin'. It's what can hold any of us back from reaching our goals. We need to deal with this “stinkin' thinkin'” with the same vigor as a business should deal with issues such as poor quality or a lack of sales. STOP IT!
