YOU have abilities to get through difficult experiences. In the midst of adversity, there are times we get stuck on questioning ( the ‘why’s),’ or our brains trick us to believe, “I can’t make it, there’s no way I can get through this.” The truth is, you have inner strengths to go through, get through, and successfully conquer some of the most difficult situations.
Sometimes life doesn’t go as planned. The difference in how one cope will result in either overcoming or succumbing to life challenges. Don’t spend too much time questioning and instead put the energy towards constructive responses. The key to success involves consciously choosing to face the challenge(s) while employing actions that builds you up versus tearing you down.
Use both internal and external resources that can reinforce YOU!
How can I do that?
First, don’t attempt to ignore or avoid facing reality. Do the opposite of what’s instinctual — face the challenge(s), connect with, and fully experience the feelings that comes up. Then, be aware of things like: how you’re thinking, what you’re saying or doing, who you’re surrounding yourself with for support, or what self-care actions you’re engaging in.
Remain consistently proactive in implementing ways to care for YOU while keeping in mind, time is also a much needed ingredient.
Make the conscious choice to tap into YOUR RESOURCES to increase success!
So, ask yourself:
How am I practicing acceptance?
What am I doing to help ME during adversity?
