Everyday comes with its challenges, some good and some seriously bad. That really isn’t the problem. Challenges only come to make us strong. Whether good or bad, they really are essential in life. God cannot give us what we can’t handle. Through challenges we are moulded into better beings. They might be setbacks but let’s not forget that setbacks might (most probably) also be set ups for our promotion(s). Whether they be positive or negative, what matters most is our attitude towards them.
Attitude towards anything determines the end result. At some point, especially when we feel pushed against the wall, a majority would tend to have a negative attitude towards the situation. Let’s face it, we are humans and are prone to get angered. No one wakes up in the morning with their mind set to having a negative attitude towards a specific situation.I have felt pushed against the wall and at some point felt like quitting. The situation came along with disappointments, discouragement and all kinds of negativity that one can think of. I would get furious but still composed calculating the next move. Later I would sit down and remember that what God has in store for me is bigger & greater that my hands can handle. That has always been my encouragement. It’s made me have a positive attitude towards tough situations.
A tough situation, whether caused by fellow humans, nature e.t.c, a positive attitude gives the best result. Looking a life from the “half-full” point of view is the best thing we can do to ourselves. The Bible clearly states that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us, (Philippians 4:13).
We all strive to be the best at what we do. It is our attitude that will determine who we become at the end of it all. Love your jobs, environment, the people around you and what God brings your way and you’ll be happy.
