There are times when life seems to be full of insurmountable obstacles and never-ending crises, to the point that you get the impression that everyone else, except for you, has the answers to all of life’s issues.
People want to give up because they feel like they have nothing left to live for, while others fall into deep despair, and still others go so far as to develop self-harm idealizations.
However, before you give up on life completely, it is crucial to realize that there are tried and true methods that may keep you strong and positive even when everything else in your life seems to be falling apart.
The following is the realization:
1. Surround yourself with people who are upbeat.
The people you associate with will decide the perspective from which you face life’s obstacles and the influence those challenges will have on your life. They may not solve all of your problems or even half of them, but they will determine the impact they have on your life.
The loss of a job may seem like something personal, but when you are surrounded by pessimistic people, it becomes a far more significant problem.
People who are pessimistic tend to focus on the negative aspects of a situation because they believe there is little chance for them to succeed in overcoming their own issues.
Because having a positive attitude is infectious, surrounding yourself with people who are confident in their own capabilities is important.
If you surround yourself with people who will support you, you will always have a reason to smile, regardless of the amount of weight that you are lugging around.
2. Look for opportunities hidden within the difficulties.
No matter how daunting a problem might appear at first glance, there is always a silver lining to be found if one is willing to take a deep breath and make an effort to see things from a more optimistic perspective.
It may appear as though a particular job was the only hope that you had, but even after you lose it, you can choose to look at the occurrence as a chance to chase greater heights or improve your education. This is something that you can do even if the job was the only hope that you had.

After all, there are people who are supposed to break your heart open in order to make it easier for you to differentiate between love and deception the next time a person who seems to be your soul mate comes your way.
3. Don’t make everything about you and your feelings.
Never take anything personally, because you will end up living on self-blame, self-hatred, and an excessive amount of negativity if you do so, even though it is normal to take responsibility for your actions in life.
There are some difficulties that can solely be laid at the feet of mother nature and the community that surrounds you.
This does not imply that you will start playing blame games or developing defense systems.
On the other hand, it suggests that you should identify obstacles as they occur and direct your attention toward finding answers rather than taking things personally when they do occur.
If, for example, a child has been exposed to drug and substance misuse, you can lessen the number of negative connotations associated with the situation by viewing it as the outcome of a dysfunctional social support system rather than a problem that is unique to the parents.
In conclusion, one should not waste their life dwelling on negative things. Life is too short.
Chronic stress and sadness have been shown to be significantly associated with lifestyle disorders; as a result, you should make an effort to maintain a positive attitude even if your life appears to be falling apart around you.
Regardless of this, positivity will never arise on its own.
The course of one’s life is invariably a journey, and it is incumbent upon each of us to travel it all the way to its conclusion.
