Everyone has experienced wanting something so badly and then not getting it. Sometimes we are grateful that it did not work out. In times like that, we usually think of the possibility that there is a divine plan. The feeling that we are the creator or we assisted in creating this plan for our earthly lives is a part of the way we may think. Realizing that when something doesn't work out they way we want, even though we have used everything in our arsenal to help it along, helps us realize we still have lessons to learn. The Stepping-stones of life are the way to get to the greater things in our world. Lessons learned are truly a gift of knowledge that shows us how to get what we want. They give us skills to help us reach higher levels of manifestation.

We should be grateful when we don't get what we want. Maybe we just aren't ready for our desires yet. It could be something that does more harm than good.When something doesn't happen like you expect, ask your higher self for direction. This will clarify the meaning behind your problem. When you are clear what the lessons needed to be learned are, write them down for future reference. Put those things to work in your life. If your aren't real clear, those same problems will continue to cause you grief. Everyone has a worksheet of lessons learned. Everyone also has a purpose in this earthly life we have. Being smart enough to learn from the mistakes, keeps us from continuing to struggle. It also makes us capable of being in control of, or "masters" of our life.
