Honestly speaking, we all have times that are so tough that we don’t know what to do. We get so worn out physically, mentally, and otherwise. Times like those can come and go. But while you are in it, you need to make sure you are safe, and the situation does not swallow you up.
So, here are 8 things you need to remember when going through tough times.
1. Everything can and will change.
Nothing is permanent and times are bound to change.
2. You have overcome challenges before.
This is not the first you’ve been through. You have been through worse and you came out victorious. You can’t come this far just to quit.
3. It’s a learning experience.
At different stages of life, we have different lessons to learn. So take the lesson and move on.
4. At times, not getting what you want can be a blessing.
5. Allow yourself to have some fun.
6. Being kind to yourself is the best medicine.
Don’t kill yourself over what you can’t handle. Be patient with yourself and allow things to fall into place.
7. Other people’s negativity is not worth worrying about.
Like I will always say, shun all negativity around you. It’s not worth it at all. You have enough worries already.
8. And there is always something to be thankful for.
Look inwards, look carefully, you will see a reason to be thankful and grateful.
For me, i always find a way to stay calm and ever grateful. #gratefulheartallthetime
Tough times are very tough.
Situations like that always presents us with reasons not to be grateful. But just like Chisom said, there is always a reason to be thankful.
Everything can and will change. Honestly, no condition is permanent. Everything has an expiry date.
