There are times when everything seems to go wrong, nothing goes according to plan. Things get complicated and don’t work out, or come at the wrong time, nothing is consolidated. It’s all confusing. And you may feel that it is low, that there is no way to face difficulties.
These bad times often change our perspective on events, we become more sensitive to all that is negative, and we can easily fall into an abyss of pessimism.
It is at this moment that we must remember five great truths that sometimes go unnoticed.
Life is a succession of cycles, in which there are moments of light and others of darkness, nothing lasts forever. We know, but we often forget it.
When we are very happy it seems to us that from now on everything will be beautiful, if we go through difficult times, we can feel that it will never end.
Both perceptions are false. Sadness and happiness happen in life, in reality there is no absolute happiness or absolute pain, black and white are rarely imposed, almost always what exists is a world of different colors, where light and darkness are combined.
If everything were always as we wanted, we would become fragile and strange beings, chances are that under these conditions we could not tolerate even minimal difficulty, we would not have the tools to do so.
Pain, frustration and difficult experiences are a source of growth. When we encounter obstacles, we also face challenges. Overcoming these challenges is part of an evolutionary process that will sooner or later pay off.
If you fall into the trap of complaint, you can actually only reinforce the presence of negative situations in your life, when you least expect it you will have created a mental scab that traps your creativity to design solutions.
Duel of a problem will not help solve it, quite the opposite: this will only add a new difficulty to the one you already have, you will surely act more assertively if instead of living off the complaints you focus on solutions. what you can do.
Patience is undoubtedly one of those virtues that represents a treasure for those lucky enough to have it, who manages to cultivate patience is happier, smarter and more efficient.
There is nothing worse than suffering unnecessarily from solutions that do not arrive quickly. Everything in life follows a process that won’t change simply because you want it. Patience allows to give time, not fall into despair as the paths that lead to a exit emerge or are built.
If after seriously thinking and trying to solve things by the available means, the solution does not appear, it is best to leave out what cannot be fixed and move on.
Don’t be tempted to stagnate and complain, censor or blame your life for what you haven’t achieved or lost, if you’re trapped in this impasse, chances are you’ll soon become cold and bitter. person, who is increasingly far from achieving peace and happiness.
