Yeah, heard this one a hundred times if once. It is a play on words that can mean many things. It could mean “When the going gets tough, hit the bricks and find something easier”, no? It could also mean what it might be intending which is “When the going gets tough, be tougher than the situation and get energized or work harder”. If the going gets tough you need to dig in and look within. Take a look at the whole situation. Are things getting tough because of some outside force of nature? Maybe from a recent change? Maybe its not anything but something you can control like your own attitude or will. Maybe it is a whole lot simpler then some cosmic negativity. I’m no expert in any of these things, but I know that I feel different today about a recent stint of time that was very tough for me and I feel that the light is growing brighter. A light I wouldn’t have seen had I decided to “Get going” Or if I just left my head in my hands instead of looking around for a solution. Is it wrong to “get going”? Not what I am saying, just do your research which I think starts with looking within yourself. I think this thought can be summed up with a simple assignment to loosely prove my point. Listen to the song #Margaritaville from a business titan #JimmyBuffet. It outlines the very progression and search for answers only to wind up where the trouble truly started. Be safe out there. #MyAumakua #StickWithIt #ItsMyOwnDamnFault
