As it is said “No rose without a thorn”, we sometimes face difficulties and suffer, but that’s when we need to endure.
There is Japanese saying “the darkest is before the dawn”, your effort is always rewarded.
So I will tell you how to overcome such difficulties with high motivations.
Overcome trouble with motivation by 5 ways
1. Make use of senses of your body
Hold up palm of your hand to the sun, look up, and smile. Think any negative thing…how was it?
I bet it was difficult. As you can see the sense of the body and emotion are closely related, and you can change your feelings by moving your body. You can refresh your frustration by running because you are releasing your energy of temper by exercising. So make a good use of the relation of body and emotion in difficult situation, and motivate yourself.
2. Dance with fear
There is a saying “Dance with Fear”, which means to accept your fear.
Here is an example. Imagine someone is strongly pulling your arm. If you resist it, you would use a lot of energy. However give yourself to that power and let your arm be pulled. You don’t need to use any energy or feel any resistance.
You feel exhaustion because you feel “fear” and your mind resists to that situation. Instead, enjoy even a fear and accept the difficulties. The situation will change and you can control the circumstances.
3. Make good use of affirmation
Affirmation is a positive statement made toward yourself.
The famous autosuggestion method created by French psychotherapist Emile Coué is one of the famous methods of affirmation.
Coué instructed his patients to repeat positive days and nights, resulted in cure for many physical and mental illnesses.
Believe, “I am OK. I can get over.”, ”I’m just suffering now and enjoyable future is waiting ahead”. Tell yourself so when you have hard time, and have a tough heart against difficulties.
4. Imagine a bright future
If you start thinking of having hard times, you will be only focusing on pains and worries.
Instead, imagine a bright future. There is no rule for imagination.
Imagine your fulfilled future and control yourself to face toward positive things. It is important to have a clear image of things.
Try to setup “when, where, what, who and how” for your imagination.
“Always look on the bright side of things.”
5. Recall your success in the past
Your present situation may be difficult and painful, but you sure have experienced the same situation in the past.And you could overcome. That’s why you are what you are today.
You have experienced fun and fulfilled days in the past. You have made success and experienced happiness. You had good times, and you sure will have them again. It is only now that you are suffering.
You can get over with your present situation, and the time will come when you look back and say “It was hard time but I could overcome”. What you could do in the past can definitely be accomplished now. Believe yourself and get over with your painful situation.
