"A vision is a clearly-articulated, results-oriented picture of a future you intend to create. It is a dream with direction."
-- Jesse Stoner Zemel
We all know that life isn’t that simple and that throughout our journey in life we might face numerous challenges, issues/problems and setbacks. The difference between people who succeed in life and those who do not is their ability to face life’s challenges correctly and not the absence of challenges. A strong and resilient person will get hit by setbacks and life issues/problems just like everyone else but shortly he will stand up and fight again. Learning how to face life’s challenges will not only help you become more successful in life but it will also let you live a happier life.
The way you think affects your ability to face life challenges
?I found that one of the main reasons people fail to face life’s challenges is that they do not understand that life wasn’t designed for people to succeed from the first attempt. People are divided into two categories when it to comes to facing life’s challenges, the first category has expectations of easy success, a smooth life that has relatively few bumps and of quick success. The second group understands that they need to try more than once in order to get what they want and that they need to try
“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength.”
Facing Life’s Challenges different things until one of them works. Of course it’s clear that the first group is extremely vulnerable to life’s issues/problems and challenges. The moment they fail they believe that something went wrong instead of realizing that success is all about trying things that do not work until something that works is found.
Your identity affects your ability to face life challenges
The way you think of yourself affects your ability to face life’s challenges. If you believe that you are weak or helpless then most likely you will fulfil the prophecy by not trying again when you fail the first few times. On the other hand if you believe that you are persistent, strong and resilient you will keep trying until you prove your beliefs true. We do not acquire new beliefs based on the events we face but instead we work on reinforcing our old existing beliefs.
?Formula for facing life’s challenges
?It’s all about finding what works: Know that you have to keep trying things that do not work until you find out something that works.
?Be flexible enough: Some people get the theory wrong and keep using the same methods that do not work then claim that they have tried hard enough. In order for your attempts to be effective you need to change your approach every time you try.
?Learn how to bounce: You cannot avoid setbacks but you can learn how to bounce back each time you face one. You will make mistakes. Everyone does. You will have regrets. You must learn to accept these things and learn how to move on. Dwelling too long on mistakes serves no purpose but to cause you unnecessary pain. You will not learn from mistakes by hating yourself for making them. Take responsibility for mistakes, take measures to rectify them if possible, and then move on. Try to do more and worry less. Worry only robs you of energy and makes everything seem bleak and impossible. Pursue your dreams for a better life, but be careful not to lose yourself so much in the dream that you ignore the life you have in front of you. If you neglect the loved ones and yourself, for whom you are trying to create a better life, then what good is the dream!
