Bad times also are not permanent

Life does not always work out the way we want it to. Sometimes things go wrong, our

plans do not work out, somebody says something to upset us, we go through unhappy

or tense circumstances. But just like good times do not last forever, bad times also are

not permanent – they pass and we get out of a bad situation and life looks good once

again. So we should get disheartened by bad times or bad luck, rather we should face

them head-on and try to resolve matters.

Every day is different bringing us new challenges and also new hope. Every day may

not be good, accept that. If all days are the same, life will become boring and

uninteresting. Ups and downs in life add to the excitement and joy of living. Today may

be bad, but then tomorrow may be good.

Live life fully – take everything in your stride, the good, the bad and the ugly. You will

always have obstacles to overcome, problems to resolve – so deal with them, cope with

the difficult times because then can you reach and savor the good times. Life is like a

see-saw – sometimes up and sometimes down. Handle it with firmness and strength of

mind. Sitting quietly and doing nothing will not yield positive results.

Stand up and take action

Worrying about the outcome will not change the situation. You have to stand up and

take action. You have to fight negative circumstances and try to get ahead. You may be

successful in your fight and deal with the challenges and problems. Or, on the other

hand you may not be able to resolve the situation, you may fail in your efforts – but that

does not matter. What is important is that you have tried to do something positive. You

have tried to better the situation and achieve your objectives. Next time, things will be

different.

Failure to achieve your goals is not defeat – it is just another obstacle in your road to

success. Do not get disheartened and morose. Learn from your mistakes and do better

next time. Each failure teaches you how to succeed and not repeat your mistakes. And

that is how you will improve and go ahead. But remember that success should not be

taken for granted either. It is as ephemeral as failure. So just keep learning and moving

forward.
