Smart Ways To Rise From Adversity To Create Strong Mentality
JAKARTA - People who have a strong mentality do not mean they are never sad or constantly feel that they are fine. Mentally strong people are actually formed from circumstances that make them fall, then get back up for the things that make them survive. Those who have a strong mentality, usually do a series of these things to be able to rise from adversity.
Give time to feel the emotions
Feelings of sadness, anger, and disappointment are natural for someone to feel when experiencing an event that hurts their heart. Instead of reassuring themselves that they are okay, mentally strong people will allow themselves to feel their emotions first, without making themselves act rashly because of those emotions.
Trying to control themselves when in trouble
Know yourself as best you can so that you can deal with any inner conflict with yourself, before a conflict with others. In difficult conditions, many bad things cross our minds. Mentally strong people will hold fast to values and norms, and control themselves not to do things that harm others.
Trying to cheer up
Just like when we comfort a friend who is in trouble, help ourselves get up by comforting them. You can ease your emotions by taking a walk for a breath of fresh air, taking a break from things that make you feel overwhelmed, treating yourself to a treat, or taking a day off.

Take a lesson from every incident
This does not always mean positive thinking. Mentally strong people know that something is wrong and there's no point in sweetening it by thinking it's a positive thing. Taking lessons from each incident means that we know what we lack or that something is happening beyond our control, but remain optimistic.
Focus on what you have
No need to wait to be rich to be able to live more comfortably. The key is in our mentality, which is willing to accept our weaknesses and strengths and use them for our self-improvement. Mentally strong people understand that there is no point in being jealous of what you don't have. Instead, they will try with what they have now to get up.
