This Just Aint Good!

 by: Gene Simmons

Nope, this just aint good! How many times in our lives have we had those or similar words bouncing around inside our skulls? Yeah, Ive lost count, too!

There are usually only a few reasons these annoying words show up. Occasionally, itll be when we just run smack-dab into an Oh Sh--! situation. You know what I mean. Accidents, diseases and a whole bunch of other stuff that seem to have popped up out of nowhere and suddenly we find ourselves up to our neck in swamp water with alligators nipping at our butts.

Now admittedly, some of these situations that seem to pop up out of nowhere are a normal result of the things we personally did or didnt do. We made our own bed and suddenly were forced to either lie in it or start ripping off the sheets. Dont ya just hate it when that happens?

Other times, an event occurs that honestly is completely beyond our control. These are just unfortunately, part of life. Natural disasters, impulsive or inconsiderate actions by other folks and many diseases fall into this category. Once again, were put into a position where well likely need to do something that we never would have wanted to do in the first place. Dang the bad luck

In both of these types of situations, were forced into a position of either having to act or suffer the undesirable consequences. Most of us will then put our logic and maybe even our survival instincts to work to do those things we need to do to try to overcome our yucky situation. More often than not, well succeed. Cool!

But what about those situations that quietly sneak up on you? You know the ones Im talking about. Its the job that started out to be pretty good and later on down the road has turned into drudgery and uncertainty. The relationship that was once built on caring and compassion which has deteriorated into indifference or abuse. The life path that was once paved and well maintained that has made a gradual transition into a muddy cow path. Now what?

Unfortunately, because the rate of change from great to crappy was so gradual, we tend to be reasonably well adapted to our present situation even though it may be quite uncomfortable. We may even be resigned to the fact that this is the way it is or feel that we have invested so much time and effort into our circumstances that it just wouldnt be worthwhile to try to make any changes. We feel trapped and annoyed by those danged words bouncing back and forth inside our heads. This just aint good! This just aint good!

Oh, if only this were one of those sudden Oh Sh--! situations. If it were only a matter of immediate urgency. Then Ill bet wed do something. Wed take action and work to overcome our emergency. Itd be a matter of survival!

You dont have to be a psychic to know where Im going with this, do you? Nah, its pretty obvious. An uncomfortable condition whether it suddenly pops into our lives or develops over a period of several years is still an uncomfortable condition. Yeah, this is one of those If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck well, you know the rest

And that bring us to our This Just Aint Good checklist. When we find ourselves in uncomfortable or undesirable situations, we only have two initial choices.

1. Do Nothing This of course, is the easiest course of action and is absolutely guaranteed to bring about zero change. Things will continue to be as they are right now. (Is this the way you really want to finish out your life?)

2. Do Something This is the more difficult of the two choices because it immediately creates two more choices.

A. Take action to change the situation Change jobs, relationships, life path or whatever condition is causing the discomfort.

B. Take action to change yourself Your thought processes, the way you view your job, relationships, etc.

Thats it! Thats all the more complicated the initial decision-making process is. And yeah, I know that our do something may actually wind up being a combination of modifying both ourselves and our situation. And the actual steps we may be required to take to make those changes may be rather involved and take a bunch of time and effort on our part. Thats OK if were genuinely interested in making a change. Thats just the way life is.

Of course, the basic requirement for making any changes either within our situation or within ourselves is Do Something. Take action. Set some goals for the changes we want, decide what we need to do to get there and get crankin.

So if youre trudging through life with This just aint good! ringing in your head, use the preceding checklist to decide what you really want to do. And above all, ask yourself the question, Is this really the way I want the rest of my life to be?

Youll know what you should do
