(Picture: A Good Example)
.
1. Did you ever plan on something to happen on schedule, and then the plans were changed?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
2. Has the telephone ever rang while you were doing something important?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
3. Has your boss ever given you too much work...and a deadline?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
4. Have you ever been waiting in a long line, getting near to the time you know
you have to be someplace else?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
5. Have you ever lost or misplaced your keys? [A Classic]
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
6. Did anyone ever cut ahead of you in line?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
7. Have you ever been stuck in traffic?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
8. Did you ever realize that something you believed in can't be trusted any longer?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
9. Have you ever been in pain, but had to wait for relief to kick-in?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
10. Did you ever find yourself to be hungry, but had NO food or money?
If YES, then you've probably experienced FRUSTRATION!
---We find that this plays out many, many times in our lives. We have one set of ideas, but others have other ideas about what is to be done. We have to learn the art of compromise. It is NOT a bad thing to become acquainted with as we travel.
---Frustrations, big or small, have one thing that they INTERNALLY all have in common. No matter what makes up your life, frustration is based on where you are in life vs. your own potential. It is always between what you are/do, up against our natural talents to do things. Learning how to best deal with these obstacles to growth is the way we learn our life lessons to grow and improve...to reach our potential. It gets hairy when our very survival comes into the mix. We have to learn attitudes that repair our ways of handling them. We may need help!
---Whenever we are thwarted in our attempts to grow, we will experience frustration. Stress goes hand-in-hand with frustration much of the time. Frustration can be a prelude to learning. Usually, there is something that is good to know around the corner.
---The FRUSTRATION QUIZ is just small way we see that frustration is potentially there all-the-time. It may be helpful to write down your biggest oppressive situations. Also, write down times you have been the oppressor. OR, you can have yourself a fun, safe time this NEW YEAR'S and come back to it sometime in the near future. Be Well and Happy New Year!

FRUSTRATION
---Frustration, we can see, comes into play when we have an idea to go a certain way...and, we are told we must go another. Our expectations are thwarted. We are inclined to go one way, but are forced to go another.---We find that this plays out many, many times in our lives. We have one set of ideas, but others have other ideas about what is to be done. We have to learn the art of compromise. It is NOT a bad thing to become acquainted with as we travel.
