Isn\’t the Weather Miserable….errr…no!


How many times do you hear someone say that the weather is \’Miserable\’?

How can weather be miserable. It\’s your reaction to the weather that determines the mood you \’do\’. And you choose miserable over \’fun\’ \’excitement\’ \’adventure\’ or even the desire to do something different. I know of one so called motivation \’expert\’ (read ex sports star who has read a book on motivation and become an expert) say \’I can\’t run a motivation workshop today as the weather is so miserable\’! What? Big ideas and little experience…bless 😉


I have worked with some people in the past when we ran a training program for AMP Bank and we were in a hotel in Peterborough. On the last day, having just returned from running a firewalk the previous night in Leeds, the snow began to fall like something out of the movie \’The Day After Tomorrow\’.

The delegates were nervous, the staff were nervous. All of them worried about how they would get home. We couldn\’t wait to get in the snow in our cars. The difference? ATTITUDE.

They saw the snow (or the rain, fog, high wind – you choose, because I am good like that) as a barrier, or an obstacle, or…shudder… a P-R-O-B-L-E-M!!! That word doesn\’t appear in the lexicon of language I carry around in my head.

We saw it as fun, opportunity, a laugh and…(drum roll)….a C-H-A-L-L-E-N-G-E.

Nothing in life has any meaning except for the meaning you give it. Choose fun, opportunity, adventure, and challenge. You will have a lot more fun if you do. You will seize life and squeeze all the juice out of it. Capture the moment. And above all…don\’t \’do\’ miserable. The weather doesn\’t make you miserable, you are choosing it. Knock it off!

Have fun!
