As you probably heard from your parents a long time ago, life isn’t fair. Which is true. We’ve all heard it.

But not everyone accepts it. And I think they’d be much happier if they did, in both their personal and business life. You can even develop a very effective MLM strategy around the unfairness of life.

When things don’t go their way, a lot of people spend their time complaining about life, feeling sorry for themselves. A lot of others commiserate with them, telling them that “lift isn’t fair” … as if they’ve been singled out to be cheated.

And the result? Both parties have their attention totally diverted from anything that could possibly raise their spirits and make them happy. You become what you think about. And the more you focus on the unfairness of life, the more unfair it all gets.

Why does it always get worse? Because you are no longer actively focusing on achieving and making your life better. Pity - whether for ourselves or for others - is a deflating emotion. It makes everyone feel worse.

So rather than feeling sorry for someone who has been treated unfairly by life, feel compassion instead. Show them kindness. It’s much more valuable to them for you to encourage them do do the best they possibly can with what they have.

Everybody has their own unique set of strengths and weaknesses. We all have the challenge of playing our hand to the best of our ability. Bad things happen in life. So what? That doesn’t change our duty to ourselves and to our loved ones to do the absolute best we can with what we have.

A good strategy is to adopt the notion that “everything happens for a reason.” No matter how awful an event is in your life, think about it in terms of “what lesson am I supposed to get from this? What is life teaching me?” When you believe that everything happens for a reason, you will never waste time & energy feeling sorry for yourself or for others.

There will be times in life and in business that you struggle, times you feel victimized, or that you have been treated unfairly. Believe me, every single instance of life’s unfairness to you had a reason behind it. It’s a very effective MLM strategy to examine the situation. You’ll find the reason pretty easily, so you can then get back on track and into action, stronger, wiser, and better-prepared than before.
