Master of Life or Victim of Circumstances: What Do You Choose To Be?
There are very few people who are born with a silver spoon
in their mouth, for the rest life is a struggle! We live among different
people, come across different situations and most often things do not happen in
our favor. The true value of life is in its unpredictability! Not once or twice but many times we get
embroiled in an unpleasant/difficult situation and the way we tackle it as well
as our attitude determines whether we emerge as winners or completely lose
ourselves. Problems vary from one individual to another thus it is difficult to explain the gravity of the situation. When we are not in
the right frame of mind, a simple problem may appear difficult to resolve. The
best way to get out of a difficult situation is-self help!
Self Help Skills:
Self-Confidence: Always believe in yourself because if you
don’t, nobody else will. Work towards reconstructing yourself. Identify your
strengths and weakness. Self confidence gives us the strength to strive towards
a better life.
Evaluate people: learn to observe people around and analyze
their behavior. There are individuals who become puppets in the hands of
manipulative people without their own knowledge. A manipulative person is often
the sweetest one, who’s well aware of your strengths and weakness, controls you
and manages to turn every situation in their favor: Beware!
Communicate: Sour relationships lack good communication,
therefore learn to express yourself, put forward your opinion even though it
may not go well with others. Most importantly learn to say NO when necessary.
Worry less Think more: The more you worry the greater the
problem. Instead of wasting your time on worrying, think about ways to solve
problems, work towards the betterment of your life.
Advice not Advisable: Sharing your problems may multiply
them. Talking to someone who has been in a similar situation might be helpful but
making it a part of general discussions, is seriously not advisable. You never
know who gives the right advice and who misguides.
Self-evaluation: count your blessings and work hard on your
weaknesses. It’s good to be self critical at times. Think over your approach
towards a situation and learn to tackle it in a sensible manner. Anger,
aggressiveness, dejection and disappointment will make it all worse.
Positive Approach:A positive approach is the first step
towards personal growth. Think positive and it will work.
Never fear hardships, never say I can't, never feel helpless or trapped. Come what may learn to fight, for a better life. You are solely responsible for your own happiness. Master of life
or victim of circumstances: YOU ARE WHAT YOU CHOOSE!
