Types And Tips To Overcome Adversities

By William Long


Challenges in life are inevitable and everyone must struggle to surmount them. The best approach in such situations is to identify the challenge, recognize its existence, and make steps towards finding a solution. Each person has a different way to overcome adversities depending on their nature and his capability. Here are tips worth considering in an attempt to conquer these challenges.

Physical adversaries include injuries or disability on eyes, spine, hands, ears, legs or any other part that stops you from performing normal activities. Recognize and appreciate that such a challenge exists. Take the next step which could include purchase of spectacles to improve your sight, learning sign language for the deaf, buying a wheel chair or hearing aids, among such facilitation enablers. If there are incentives available in form of subsidies, take advantage of them to ease your survival.

There are mental problems that will limit your capabilities. They range from stress, depression, hyperactivity, autism and other mental conditions. Learn relaxation methods and avoid situations that are likely to escalate your condition. Visit a psychiatrist or psychologist to get a personalized solution. Get into a routine that allows you to avoid idle time. Exercises also help you to be a master of your mind.

Emotional challenges also exist with the potential of hindering progress in life. A mentally mature person deals with the most difficult challenges without allowing the emotions to overpower him or her. Regardless of the challenges you are facing, emotions do not intervene. Practice of forgiveness and dealing with rage will help you control your emotions. A counselor will also assist.

There are social adversities that hinder personal development and actualization. Building relationships becomes a challenge if your social skills are up to scratch. Work may be affected since relating with clients, bosses and colleagues becomes a challenge. Practice interaction skills and be courageous enough to face tough situations. A social psychologist will also help.

Financial adversaries are easy triggers of the other categories. You need to take quick action to find a solution. Acknowledge that your situation in life can change. Identify what you need to do in order to change it. It could involve taking up a job, hard work, avoiding idleness and learning certain skills. It takes persistence and personal initiative to change your current position. Learn how to save and take all opportunities that come your way.

Spirituality plays a role in your sanity and may affect your emotional or mental health when not properly handled. It will also damage your relationships and social life if not handled properly. Do not mix spiritual believes because it will lead to confusion. Follow a spirituality whose principles are tested. Protect yourself from unnecessary interference and do not be obsessive about it. Have boundaries about your interactions and spirituality.

A lot of personal will is required to overcome adversaries. You need commitment to the course and readiness to feel the discomfort. Seek help where it is available but remember that you will have to walk the path on your own. It will not be easy to surmount most of these challenges but it is always possible.
