Day 125 Overcoming Challenges

Do you control your challenges or do your challenges control you?

What are challenges? -Challenges are when you are faced with difficult or stressful situations.

How to handle challenges? -It can be very hard to think about solutions when you are under stress. Often if you can slow down and take the time to tell someone about the challenges facing you, that other person can be calm enough to help you re-gain control and help you think of effective solutions.

*** Everyone makes mistakes and that no one is perfect. When we are under stress, this is even more true. Therefore, during stressful moments, it is even more important than ever to slow down, think about taking control of problems (instead of letting problems take control of you), talk to someone else about how you are feeling, and don’t act impulsively in ways that create new problems.** *
