Why Distractions Instead of Thought as a Response to Inconvenience Will Ruin Your Life

in #mindset6 years ago (edited)

Hello, dear Steemians!

Today I have a very important message for you which might turn your life around if given the thoughtfulness that is necessitated.

Difficulties are an inherent and unavoidable part of life. Wherever you go and whatever you do, pain always follows the footsteps of joy. Regardless of whether you have grown to accept this truth of life or not, it is important how you deal with the difficulties and inconveniences that come your way.

Most people would find shelter in the comfort of their harmful distractions, instead of actually sitting down and solving their problem with mindfulness and conscious thought.

Inconvenience draws you out of your comfort zone, both physically and mentally. It is a painful and peculiar occurrence that might happen to us every week or every month.

The problem is that when we come up against a problem or a challenge, the very first thing that we want to do is find a way to avoid them.Because after all, avoiding them would be the easier path. But trust me friends, cowardice will always have company.

Instead of running away, you could stand your ground and fight, saving a lot of time and energy in the meantime while greatly contributing to the state of your mental health.

Addictions, toxic people, mindless pastimes, harmful diversions, and other illusory and wasteful distractions of any kind are favorable inclinations that follow an inconvenience or a problem in our life.

Falling down the rabbit hole of such distractions will only leave you broken and more desperate than ever.

A lot of times we don’t even know that we are falling prey to this destructive pattern of behavior. An incident occurs, and instead of facing it head on with sensibility and thought, we procrastinate and waste time by indulging in activities that might be harmful to our well-being and our future opportunities.

That is why most people in the current state of our modern world fail to live up to their own expectations and achieve their goals in life.

By becoming self-aware and conscious of your coping mechanisms and how you process pain and incident, you can reprogram your brain to face your demons head-on and achieve success without sacrificing your time and energy for the fear of pain and suffering.

The result of us not listening to our experience is that we are doomed to relive it over and over again.

Consider the countless times that you have surrendered to those tempting distractions instead of dealing with your problems and as a result, ruined your opportunities and estimably decreased your efficiency.

Time is not a resource that we can afford to lose. In our folly to run away from the things that would hurt us, and in our lack of tolerance for bearing the difficulties of the road, we waste the little precious time that is given to us in this lifetime.

If you do not become self-aware of how you deal with your problems, your dreams will leave you behind and you will find yourself in a pit of despair, that of your own making.

Think about how you approach your problems.

Do you look for ways to solve them, or do you decide to run away?

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Good afternoon

Says a song "Life is like that ... I have not invented it myself". Who would you like during your life to have no problem or difficulty? The answer is everything, but unfortunately these situations are part of our life.

Everyone at some point has problems, some more than others and some we solve more quickly and effectively than others.

As you say, the problems must be solved from the root, do not use escape routes that only solve part of the problem, but do not allow you to continue in peace and with happiness the path you have traveled.

For many people, it is extremely difficult to leave their conford area and embark on new ways to solve the problems that arise, be it love, family, economy, etc.

We must take action, no matter how difficult it may be, and leave our Conford area in order to progress and progress in life.

regards...

Gracias @chbartist para los seres humanos es necesario escuchar, leer, ver este tipo de enseñanza porque es verdad, el factor de sentirnos al borde del abismo se nos presenta a lo largo de nuestras vidas. Como dices "el dolor siempre sigue los pasos de la alegría". Concentrarnos en nuestro sendero es lo que evitará caer o más aun darnos fuerza para seguir la marcha. @madiba24

Saludos @chbartist! Como indicas en tu escrito, nos dejamos llevar por la felicidad que proporciona un estilo de vida "cómodo y sin problemas", desarrollando una necesidad a la zona de confort.

Pero cuando surgen los problemas no sabemos como afrontarlos porque no hemos desarrollado verdaderas actitudes de trabajo, de emprendimiento, de resolución de conflictos.

Para garantizar nuestro crecimiento personal debemos de plantearnos nuevos objetivos, correr los limites de nuestra zona de confort, de esta manera mantendremos un crecimiento constante.

Feliz día!

We all want the easy way to solve our problems and that's why we pick distractions most times.

Thinking about them might look like an herculean task which we might be uninterested in for the moments.

Irrespective of that I think you're doing a great job.

If you do not become self-aware of how you deal with your problems, your dreams will leave you behind

It's a catch 22 really...jmho...There are those who see a problem and hasten to solve it, instead of letting it meld to full purpose, as a scoby.

Oftentimes, to paraphrase your writing, wise people go through (via perseverance and endurance) the hardships...the inevitable difficulties of life.

Doing so, causes one to emerge completely wiser for outcomes. I will end with an example:

If your business partner betrays you, keep doing the work put before you without denigrating the person who you feel harmed you. Put your energy into learning what wisdom you have gleaned from the experience, more than blaming the person who 'disappointed' you for their actions.

The school of life is a popular phrase; and, I do believe each and every one of us are students of the same throughout the earthly journey.

Peace.

Think about how you approach your problems.
Do you look for ways to solve them, or do you decide to run away?

There are problems that can't be solved. We just have to accept those and bear them patiently up to the end of our last breath.
And it all boils down how we define a problem. Sometimes we think some things or circumstances as problems, in fact they're not.
I guess the main and ultimate one that we could ask and think is how to deal ourselves when we realize that our end is approaching.
In my own point of view, it all matters on how we see joy inspite of all sort of pains especially when we're hitting near the finish line of our existence.

Happy New Year!

Problems tend to snowball into more complex webs which ultimately become too exhausting to handle which is why handling them early and head on is the best way to ignore having a roadblock to your goals and objectives. Just because you cover the sun does not mean it isn’t there so deal with it while you still can.

Happy New Year to you too, @chbartist.
This has been quite a trying year, one that precisely put me to the test in terms of confronting the problems instead of running away from them.
It also served as a test to when and how we can keep confronting and when it is good to just move on and turn the page. Some battles can not be won and going away from that battleground is sometimes the only and wiser option.

@chbartist, Yes, tough times, uncomfortable and inconvenient situations will arise and we all tried to avoid it at some point of time but in my opinion if we will face these situations with more courage then in my opinion we will going to win over the situations and can convert uncomfortable situations into comfortable situations. Stay blessed. 🙂

Yes we have to fight with the circumstances
We should have courage
Instead of running away we should stand and fight
Very inspiring mate @chbartist

I think that sometimes situations happen to us that are not so easy to overcome on their own and therefore we must find the courage to ask for help. When we ask God for help in some way will come, either through a writing or through the words of someone or in the consultation of a professional. The important thing is to find a way to solve the situation and learn from it.
