Life can be like an ocean. The waves may be very calm one day and the next day, there could be a storm. Life is not like a mountain that remains steady forever. From our childhood we find that times are changing. Sometimes everything looks like it is going perfectly. Other times, everything goes wrong. What to do about these times?
It has been called our fate. Sometimes we have to accept that whatever happens is destined. Some people may be very calm. Some of those who believe in fate are also very inactive. They accept whatever happens to comes their way, without making any effort to fight the situation. Certainly one can believe in fate. But that should not stop us to act positively? How to deal with tough times?
List all your assets. Some of us think that they are left with nothing when tough times hit. But that is not true. You may be facing the toughest time yet, but you are alive. That's an asset. If you are healthy, that is another asset. If your family is supporting you, that is one more asset. You have friends? Add them as your assets. Write down everything you have as an asset. This kind of list gives us positive inspiration. We feel that not all is lost. That is very important. To come out of the hopelessness is the first major step we should take during tough times.
Make a list of all the problems that you are facing. Separate the list into small problems and big problems. Take a look at the list again and find out which problems may be ignored for the time. Find out the problems that must be tackled. Begin with small problems from that list. As you solve one after another problem, you will see your confidence growing. Tough times like to test us our attitude.
Thank you for your interest,
