How to Deal with Divorce at Midlife

Thriving vs. Surviving

Whether you make the decision to stay in your marriage or get a divorce, in order to prevent suffering you have to make peace with your decision. If you decide that divorce is your best option, then don’t waffle and question your decision. Go forward instead of looking back wondering if you made the right move. This is the key to coming out of a midlife divorce without suffering or undue amount of pain.

You want to be thriving in divorce; not surviving divorce. It helps to know what to forget and what to remember:

What you should forget:

• Forget about what others will think

• Forget about feeling like a failure

• Forget about regrets and what you could have done differently

• Forget about your unrealistic expectations about the marriage

• Forget about blame and excuses

• Forget about being right

What you should remember:

• Remember to accept where you are and DECIDE what you want NOW

• Remember all of the positive things that will come about as a result of the divorce

• Remember that every so called failure is just a stepping stone for your new and improved reality

• Remember to surround yourself with positive people instead of those who want you to remain angry or bitter

• Remember that you are a deliberate creator and that you can achieve anything you believe and set your mind on
