When Life Gets Difficult, Anything Is Possible

The world comes down on us when life gets tough.  We don’t know what to do, how to solve everything that happens to us.

Sometimes it is not about changing what is happening, but about seeing it from another perspective or simply accepting it.

However, surely, when you look back and remember all those negative moments that you had to live, you think that it was not so difficult to get out of that situation, that your feelings kept you enduring what you did not want …

Sometimes we don’t have the tools to deal with difficulties. Perhaps because we don’t realize that when life gets tough, anything is possible.

You are your worst enemy

Undoubtedly, the most adverse circumstances cause us to bring out our worst “self”, that one that crushes itself, that self-destructs, that ends up becoming its own enemy.

You have two alternatives when your world is turned upside down: complain or move on. What are you going to choose?

Our first reaction is almost always to complain:  “Why is this happening to me?”, “Is it that I have not behaved well with others?”, “Do I deserve this?”

Adversities do not choose people. You have not been a target to choose.

When you find yourself in this situation of absolute sorrow for what is happening to you, get down to work.

Let’s change this:

• Can you modify what is happening? If so, do it. If not, accept it. We tend to reject what we do not like, but if there is nothing we can do to avoid it or redirect it, it is better to accept it.

• Do not be sorry if you are the culprit, learn from it.  Perhaps the negative situation has originated because of a bad action of yours or a not very wise decision. It doesn’t matter, you can’t go back. Admit your mistake and move on.
• Among all the garbage, there is always something that you can take advantage of. You may see everything black, but trust us: there is always something positive when everything has turned negative. Open your eyes and do not be obsessed with the bad. Take a good look because there is something good that you can get out.
• Fear prevents your advance. The most harmful situations cause us an atrocious fear that invites us to flee. However, this is not a good reaction. Start facing your fears and not running away. Only then can you find the solution to your problems.

In reality, being happy costs very little. However, we continually hold on to everything negative that happens to us without letting go.

When life gets tough, smile

When life gets tough, is it smart to help it get worse? With the aforementioned attitudes we will achieve that this is not the case.

Your best smile and positivity will help you take control of the situation even if you think you have lost all kinds of control.

For that, the aforementioned will help us a lot: in a negative circumstance there is always something positive, no matter how small.

Try to learn from what happens to you, especially from the bad. This will help you in your future to react better to similar experiences.

For example, imagine that a lot of people around you have disappointed you. It seems that all have agreed and, every time you give a reason to trust, you are met with disappointment.

Don’t be sorry for this. You can’t change people, so accept that they are like that. From this you can learn not to expect too much from others and to leave the illusions that you put aside.

This way, you won’t get any unpleasant surprises. It is a way to overcome a fairly common situation that has caused many of us pain.

Do not forget that everything happens. The negative comes and goes, it never stays forever. Although you cannot see it now, things change.

So do not complain, do not be obfuscated … Put your negative emotions aside and take out all the positive ones to counterattack.

When life gets difficult, there are no impossibilities, no limits: anything can happen.
