tough situations makes you tougher
and tougher situation makes you mentally prepare for the worst
but that's not what it is supposed to be: worst
there's a very famous phase made by someone I couldn't find, "what can't kill you makes you stronger"
here's an example of how this "theory" works:
Bone's stronger after breaking
in life we definitely encounters tough situations where you say "it's the end" even though it's not
and these situations may even cause you severe mental pain or damage your relationship with others...but eventually it will be over. and when that happens...your minds gets stronger and able to take more. your relation ship with your friends your family your colleague gets stronger as you begin to understand them more
escaping from issues only prolong the pain involved. if you got a problem, you got a problem. running or denying the problem as a problem won't solve anything. it might make it even worst
using the previous example...let just say you broke your finger. you know that is a problem but because it's just your little finger and you are able to take the pain, you do nothing about it. you let it dangle there and tell everyone who asked that your finger is fine. you did not seek any medical treatment. 1 week later you discovered black spots appearing on your broken finger. you thought it was dirt and when you tried to wash it off it didn't. you couldn't feel your little fingers too. finally after 2 weeks you decided to see a doctor about it. the doctor told you that your finger has rotted due to no blood circulation and they have to amputate it. and guess what ? since your hand has been in contact with the rotted finger for so long...it was starting to rot too and they have to cut off your hand together with your finger!
what a waste of a good hand...if only you had seek help immediately when your finger is broken. you don't have to bear the pain for so long and you wouldn't have to cut it off.
in conclusion, don't run away from tough situations. it will strengthen you and your relationship with the people around it. most of these situations are not going to kill you and they only appear to be tough because of your anxiety and your mindset. change your perspective and the problem is not any bigger any other problems you faced before
