Life is managed; it is not cured. Learn to take charge of your life and hold on. This is a long ride and you are the driver every single day. Simply put, never in your life are you without problems and challenges. You know that if everything is calm and peaceful in one area, such as your home, there's likely to be challenge and turmoil in the workplace, or vice versa. But we often worry about the difficulties and don't spend enough time thinking about what things are going well. So accept that life has to be managed and you will be less likely to concentrate on all the bad stuff, label every problem that arises as a crisis, or think that you are a failure. Manage your life, and all the bad and good it throws at you.
