Tough Times Never Last Tough People Do
Never Lose Hope: Hope is something we all
have within us when times get tough and rough. Another
word for Hope is love and with hope and love, even the most impossible can be
made possible. Hope
is the pillar that holds up the world for everything that is done is done with
a hope. We may not always have a comfortable living and may not always be able
to solve all the problems spontaneously but never ever underestimate your own ability
in doing so because if courage can be contagious, then hope can take on a life
on its own. We should always make positive pledges within the family each day
by reading and listening to positive and powerful events and also by
associating ourselves with encouraging, positive thinkers.
We should always try our
best to never lose hope in any situation:
1.
Believe
in yourself. Identify
your strengths and enhance them so that you can overcome your weaknesses. There
is nothing impossible on earth if you believe you can accomplish it. Always
remember the quote “TRY And TRY AGAIN, TILL YOU SUCCEED”. Believing in yourself
is the key to success in life.
2. Always be brave to accept the
Reality. Ups and downs are the diversities in everyone’s life and we all
should be bold enough to face it as it comes. This is easier said than done
because the one who is enduring such a situation feels totally lost and lonely. Many questions seem to haunt the brain –“how
will stable myself?”, “will I ever find happiness again?” and the most common “what
do I do now?”“What will people think of me?” etc. It is understandable that a
sudden change can be difficult to handle and accept, but one day it will
definitely get better. The toughest part in such a situation is that one must
accept the truth and be prepared for what it is but still must not lose hope
for a bright new day.Remember
a situation where we find ourselves weak may seem impossible but it is better
to be prepared and fight through it for there is
definitely an end to every battle.
4. Stay calm and never let your
feelings reflect on your face. Always show a cheerful face
and avoid sad and gloomy expressions, it will not only cheer us up but will be
a great help in passing the phase smoothly with the help of our friends as well
as an old saying, “smile and the world smiles with you, cry – you cry alone.”
5.
Identify
reasons for failure. Everyone fails to achieve some goal, but if we learn
from the failure, we will be more likely to succeed in the future. “SUCCESS”
And “FAILURE” are the most important part of life and every individual has to
face it at least once in a life span.So we should be brave and hopeful to face it
with courage and dignity for “NO ONE IS PERFECT”. Face it boldly and don’t take
the easy way out by giving up. Always remember that no one recovers from a
large failure overnight. It takes time for the situations to be conducive and
then to heal.
6. Be
positive and think Positive. We should try to remain in
the company of those
people you admire for it will be very easy to start believing in our own self
when we are in the company of those who have set their goals and achieved it.
This is a nice way to bring out ideas about how to accomplish our own goal.
Walk around with a smile, and be friendly, pleasant and nice. Talk with
kindness, encouragement, civility, and respect so that you are fun to work
with. Instead of complaining, sulking or gossiping, we should listen to them
with interest.
7. Never
give up. We should give our best at
every opportunity that come across our way. Any effort to improve our own
self by accomplishing tasks will not be a mere waste of time but will be a learning
process. We all are stronger than we think and any one little setback is not
enough to stop us from moving ahead towards our cherished desired goals. We
definitely deserve the best and to get that we have to succeed. We should never
give up until we reach our destination!
8.
Be
patient and persistent.Goals are set by each and every single
individual but only those could accomplish them who remains persistent and have
patience. This is certainly frustrating at times, but it’s a career path that shall
bring more joy than any other because facing in the right direction and moving slowly
will definitely give fruits to admire. Nothing great is ever accomplished
without persistence and patience because, in order to be successful, our dreams
must translate into work.
9.
Introspection.
Every
single individual is aware of the word “Introspection”, but do we really practice
it. Introspection is the examination of our soul that helps in clearing our
thoughts, builds self-confidence and identifies our weaknesses. If we are
sincere in practicing this art, then there is nothing that will stop us from
accomplishing our goals or targets. This particular exercise is very simple as
it needs no laboratory or test materials instead can be used at any time and at
any place.
10. Time. A famous quote “Time heals all wounds, and
hope is a balm”. If we do feel that something bad has happened than we must not
panic or blame our self for it. As the time will pass we will understand that it
was a part of life and we were capable enough to handle such situations in the
future. So always believe something better is waiting for
you ahead. To expect a long-term view without difficulties is not
possible at all, so it’s better to come, persevere knowing that we are going to
get over it one day.
11. Focus on your strengths. We should focus on
our strengths, rather than sulk on our weaknesses for concentrating on such areas
will boost up our spirits to fight more toughly. We should also keep a check on
our weaknesses and work on them. Focusing on what we don’t do well only weakens
our confidence, enthusiasm, creativity and overall performance; instead, our
attention should be focused on expanding upon strengths and working around our
weaknesses.
12.Acknowledge your success. We should
never forget to congratulate ourselves for all our successes, whether
small or big. This will, in turn, increases our motivation and helps to work on our
strengths. Once a while we can even look back into our past achievements and
acknowledge ourselves for the same. “But that’s the past,”and it doesn’t make
much of a difference.
It is hope that makes the present moment less
difficult to bear because if we believe that tomorrow shall be better, the
hardships we face today will seem less difficult. A
situation where we tend to lose hope in everything may seem rare at that
particular moment, but tragedy occurs when we also stop trying for positive
results.
“Effective people are not problem-minded; they're
opportunity-minded. They feed opportunities and starve problems.”
