Sack the Happy HL86

Have you ever found yourself winning only to realize you lost? You were so focused on something right in front of you that you forgot the reason you started that thing or process in the first place? Having the start of the NFL season right around the corner, I found myself in the mood to podcast about it. Sometimes grabbing Happy is as easy as letting go of sadness. I had a defensive coordinator of a state championship football team tell me, that he tells his defensive linemen to strike, press, extend and then shed the offensive lineman. He told me that sometimes his linemen stay engaged with their opponent too long. They get too involved. They're in their lane, fighting and winning their assignment but in the long run miss the quarterback altogether. I think this is true in life as well. We're doing our job, and we have an opportunity to become the hero. We just have to disengage the sadness and sack the happy. Let go of our opponent. Stop focusing too much on the obstacle in front of us. And then simply reach out and sack the Happy. After all, it's a little difficult to grab one thing when you're holding on to another. Everyone faces opposition. We can't ignore that (unless we prefer to lose in life). However, we can focus on the obstacle, opponent, failure, negativity too much. It's pretty easy to do (for me anyways). Sometimes all the enemy of our souls, all the sadness of our life has to do to win, is to get us to focus too much on the problems and obstacles right in front of us. www.HappyLife.lol www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios www.PayPal.me/StevoHays
