When One Door Closes, Another Door Opens

“When one door closes, another door opens, but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.”
- Alexander Graham Bell -
“When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one, which has been opened for us.”- Helen Keller -

These two quotes are so true! Read them again, they both say:

When one door closes another door opens.

Most people are too attached to the past, to what they are familiar with, and therefore, miss opportunities that stand right in front of them.

Doors may close, but there are always, other, unlimited number of doors – new opportunities. The world is full of opportunities, if we could only see them. The Infinite Power is boundless, and so the possibilities are without number.

Not every plan works out. Sometimes, there are losses and failures. Sometimes, there are problems in relationships. Sometimes, people lose their money or job, or meet other unpleasant things.

We don’t always have control over these events, but we can exercise control over our mind and attitude. When one of these things happens, and we focus our attention on the loss – the closed door, we see only a closed door with the resultant frustration and unhappiness.

If we could only move our sight and attention away from the closed door, we might be surprised to discover new, open doors.

It might not be so easy to move our eyes elsewhere, due to attachment to the old and familiar, and fear of the new and the unknown.

If you find it difficult to stop the uncontrolled flow of negative thoughts, your mind would keep focusing on the loss, failure and frustration - the door is closed. Would these thoughts help you in any way, or they will create suffering and prevent change and improvement?

You can agree with what is said here, but how can you free yourself from past attachments and see the new opportunities? How can you resolve to do, and enter the new doors that open for you?
To participate, you must make an effort:
You'll need to be more aware of your thoughts.
Desire to be free of thoughts that keep you stuck in one place.
Develop a degree of self-discipline.
Develop some degree of ability and control your mind concentration.
Enjoy the power of affirmations and visualization.
A degree of inner peace would also help. It will help you to reject unwanted, negative thoughts, and become more open, positive and happy. When your mind it in peace, it would be easier for you to detach yourself from the past, keep an open mind, and therefore see more clearly the new doors that open for you.
Remember, when one door closes another opens.
