Buddy, I don't know, I can't understand what's happening in life. It's like I'm tired of these responsibilities, relationships, work, and everything. I just feel like I'm stuck. I feel like running away far from everything. I can't figure out what is going on, where life is taking me. Raising kids, educating them, worrying about expenses, managing home and work, and so many other small-big things. It's natural that we get tangled up.

Do you ever feel the same way?

These things are often experienced by everyone. Today, I'll share 4 interesting ways with you, and if you apply them, you'll be able to handle life's problems better. You'll understand the techniques to manage everything in life so that nothing becomes a burden. Let's start with how every problem in life, when one ends, another begins, exhaustion set sin, the mind keeps wandering, life starts to feel heavy, and we lose focus or can not concentrate 100% on tasks. It's like we just want to leave everything and go far away to feel at peace. How to overcome all these problems and still move forward with a smile! we'll talk about that. It's important to understand, because it affects both our mental and physical health.


The first way: Understanding Life Look

In life, both happiness and sadness are two equal parts. It's never going to be that happiness will always come, or that we'll only get what we desire, or sadness will never come. No, because the true experience of life, understanding how to live it, comes from both happiness and sadness. Just as we have the ability and strength to experience happiness, we must also have the strength to face sadness. Because that's life, ups and downs will always come. First, we need peace within ourselves. We need to find the strength to balance both happiness and sadness.

Second way: Stay positive

When we start seeing life the way it is, not the way we want it to be, we will find peace. If we think that "after marriage or getting a job, my life will be better and happiness will come," it doesn't work that way. We need to understand that with every phase in life, with every small happiness, responsibilities come along. Life's not just about happiness; with those happiness come responsibilities and struggles. The bigger the success dreams, the bigger the responsibility. Every small or big victory brings new responsibilities. Or someone might think, "If I leave my home and move to another city or country, may be everything will get better," but once they reach a new place or environment, they face the same stress and problems they did before. Because only external changes don't change inner life. If we don't change our mindset and emotions, we will face problems in every new situation. External changes may bring temporary happiness, but real peace and joy come from within. That's why we need to learn to accept life as it is. When we learn to accept life in its true form, inner strength starts developing naturally.

Third way: Be grateful

It may be that there are many problems in my life, but if I sit down one day and write a list of my life, I'll find many things to be thankful for that God has given me. For example: My job is great, my boss has never been angry with me, i have the support of my friends, my family is always there for me, there is stability in my life.

Leaving all of that aside, there are other things I am grateful for, like: God gave me hands, feet, eyes, a healthy body, etc. When we say this every day and thank God, it will give us the strength to overcome tough situations in life. Gratitude gives us the power to make difficult moments in life easier, turning every obstacle into a new opportunity.

Fourth way: Give time to yourself

Just like the story of the tortoise and the hare, it's not always the one who runs fast that has an easier life. Looking at others, we might think, "That person traveled abroad at a young age," "That person got a great job at 25, while I am 30 and still figuring things out." We may not understand someone else's struggles until we walk in their shoes. Therefore, take time in your life. It's not necessary to achieve success immediately. It may take a month, four months, a year, or more, but whatever steps we take, they should be the right ones. Even if they are small steps, as long as they lead to our destination, they are the right ones. Don't think that someone is ahead of you, or feel proud if someone is behind you. Just keep going, and obstacles will eventually overcome themselves.

Lastly, I would like to say, know yourself, and appreciate what you have. Running away from problems won't solve them. Make yourself so strong that solutions will come on their own or all your problems will be solved.

Beyond the Seen, one story at a time.

When nothing is found outside, the search finally turns inward---beyond form, beyond the visible, into the unseen depths where the true essence lies hidden.
