Challenges and difficult moments are not lacking in our life and, therefore, it is essential to learn to deal with them well for a lighter and happier life.
I usually say that those who are alive have problems, but the problem itself is never the problem really, but how we deal with it! So the reflection of today’s text is: how do you usually deal with your problems and challenges?
Our attitude towards these situations is something to watch out for! Do you usually run away from problems? Do you despair when you encounter challenges? Are you always looking for someone to solve for you? Are you crying for any challenge that arises? Do you also have a tendency to face someone else’s problem?
Stop for a moment and think about it! We tend to live so automatically that we let moments like this go by and when we realize it, we are already in a cycle of stress. But the first step towards change is awareness and that’s what I want you to accomplish.
Before implementing Positive Psychology tools in my life, I suffered a lot from challenges, felt incapable, cried and was looking for someone to solve them for me. But let’s face it, this can’t be maintained over the long term! Adults must learn to deal with problems, otherwise they will be sucked into it. So I started to understand myself, to understand my coping limitations, to better understand what my challenges were and now I feel able to face whatever comes your way!
It does not mean that I will have the immediate answer or that I will not suffer from problems, but that I open up and allow myself to learn how to solve them! And implementing this new functioning helped me a lot to cope better with the stress that accompanied the problems and even improved my self-esteem, after all I have learned to trust my abilities even more!
I’ll give you an example: when I am faced with a big problem I need to stop for a while to think, understand and feel. After taking that moment, I think about what I need to do! And learning the importance of that pause before resolution was very liberating! Even better was learning to tell others that I need some time to think!
This way I can avoid even more damage, such as possible quarrels, tears or quarrels, and I can prepare myself to face what lies ahead!
Now I want to hear from you! How do you cope with your problems? And how would you like to change and improve? How would you best be to deal with them?
