There are peaks and valleys in life. It’s okay to be down occasionally and up sometimes. However, it’s during the challenging times that we require a little extra help and direction. I really believe that a person’s true character is revealed by their actions at times of adversity. Not only does one’s life become happier when they can better handle adversity, but they also develop personally. Although this may sound corny, the truth about clichés is that they’re usually accurate. Maintaining an optimistic attitude is crucial, even though it’s not the only factor in getting through challenging circumstances. When confronted with an unpleasant circumstance, I enjoy dissecting it all to determine what went wrong and what I could have done differently. Eventually, I get a very clear image of what I need to do to make sure I don’t find myself in the same scenario again, and I always end up learning something that helps. Or, should I find myself in a comparable circumstance, I am aware of how to lessen its difficulties. Knowing that there’s little to no likelihood of it happening again makes it simpler to get through a trying moment. You only need to make a change once you’ve determined what the most important lessons were from your trying period.
