Views:329 | By: Winnie Sometimes, things happen in life that we didn’t see coming. When someone we care about dies, a romantic partnership ends, we face failure at work or are disappointed, and we often feel like nothing will work out. In every difficult situation, following a new course can still be possible. Not all people are naturally resilient; anyone can develop it. Learning it step by step is possible, and you will get plenty of help along the way. Try these five steps to get back on your feet even when things get tough:
Accept What Happened
Postponing your understanding of what happened won’t improve your mental health. Just because you accept what occurred doesn’t mean you are okay with it; it just means you are no longer denying your truth. Starting to change helps you reclaim your life and find peace.
Experience Your Emotions Completely
Internalizing your emotions tends to increase stress as time goes by. You’re allowed to feel sad or mad at times; it’s natural. Having these emotions is something natural, and it makes sense. Experiencing your feelings can actually loosen their impact on you.
Pay attention to what you can learn.
Going through difficulties always brings a lesson we can learn. Think about: What know-how can I pick up from this? Maybe you need to say no more often, value your own worth, or take a different action next time. Growth is usually the result of experiencing discomfort.

Take Action, even if It’s Small.
Making progress doesn’t have to be noticeable or exciting. Start by making your days a little better. Take a walk outside, clean up, or work towards one small goal. What you do helps you regain confidence and know where you are heading.
Let Others Help
Doing things on your own is not the reason you were put on this earth. You may want to speak with a friend, attend a group session, or explore therapy. Talking to others reduces your stress and shows you that there are others by your side.
