Question 1^5 / 5^ pts Read the following text and answer the questions below: Facing Life’s Challenges By Dr. TRK Life itself is a series of challenges, whether large or small. How do we habitually respond to daily life? Do we easily panic and become frantic, or do we stay positive and energetic? Do we make small problems big, or do we make big problems small and dissolve them into nothing? How we face the normal events of each day is generally how we will face the bigger challenges.
Let us look at some of the qualities of people who become negative and panic versus people who respond positively and energetically. Panicky people do not have control over their mental energies. Because their minds are unfocused, they exaggerate events. Their confusion complicates things and even small challenges appear to be big problems. Giving in to negative emotional states creates nothing but more negative reactions, such as jealousy, hatred, blame, fear, and depression. That helps neither us, the situation, nor the people around us. The moment negative emotions hit us, we have to see the urgency of generating some positive energies, instead, and start doing something good for the environment and others. We cannot afford to be frantic. There is nothing, great or small, that is worth getting nervous or agitated over. Rather than creating mental problems, we should deal with life both energetically and peacefully. That is why we need to make a practice of always keeping our mind focused on consciousness and taking care of things on time, both big and small. By training ourselves to have a clear vision of the consequences of our actions (or non-actions), we can stay ten steps ahead. If we want to successfully face life's challenges, we need a positive mindset, based on wisdom. With our minds focused, balanced, and aware, we can respond to any situation or daunting task from that state. By perceiving and acting through clear perception and wisdom, rather than through feelings, we can objectively examine a situation in the moment and set the right energy in motion. Creative and positive people never buckle under when a challenge arises or hesitate to do what needs to be done. We, too, can have the confidence to tap into our inner inspiration. Inspirational quotes can have a place, so we have to say to ourselves, "Accentuate the positives and forget the negatives. Focus on uplifting thoughts and doing something good."
