Life is full of challenges. These challenges stand as obstacles in our daily lives. There might be challenges like limited access to health services, education, and employment, as well as social and economic stigma and discrimination to name a few. A significant challenge faced by today’s world is increasing population growth and its significant impact on the plant’s resources which poses a serious threat. There can be a handful of difficulties that might aggravate multiple life spheres such as exposure to traumatic events, financial uncertainty, climate change, and changing interpersonal dynamics that add to our woes. The human mind cannot predict for a short period which contributes to the difficulties faced in addressing critical global challenges. There have been many challenges faced by me in real life and some of the experiences gained during such circumstances have taught me a lesson in my life.
Here are some common problems that are considered as the turning point of my life.
Health Crisis
There has been not a single day when I have not been feeling sick. It might not have been a big issue nor has it been too intense. It might have caused due to the wearing of one’s body due to the rigorous daily schedule. Dealing promptly with the health issue does not aggravate the situation. Therefore, it was either overcome after visiting a doctor for a regular checkup or there have been times when the disease was cured itself.
Workplace Issues
Everyone goes to work when there is time and opportunity for it. It is a place where a question arises of how to keep a balance between teamwork and professional relationships. It is also a place where people are expected to fulfil their duties as employees. During my days in office, there have been days when I had problems with my colleagues over a certain issue but I have been able to resolve it amicably.
Emptiness
Life sometimes gets very dull and insipid for a person and there is nothing he/she can do. This emptiness in one’s life is not a big issue and can have a big impact on our lives. I have faced such a situation when I felt very lonely at times. However, I have been able to break the shackles of boredom and emptiness by regularly interacting with my friends and colleagues.
Friendship Issues
As the saying goes “A friend in need is a friend indeed “, a person needs a friend or a companion to get along well with life. A friend is not just a mere acquaintance but serves as a helping hand in times of need. But sometimes when this relationship ends up in fumes it creates a lot of problems in our daily life. In my case, I have avoided such a situation. The reason behind this is that I have been very diplomatic at first with my friends. Also, I have been cautious enough in choosing the appropriate friend for myself and have avoided mixing with friends who are toxic and unhealthy for me.
Failure
While moving forward in life, apart from achieving our goals and moving on with our careers, we are bound to face failures. Since failures are the stepping stone for success one cannot deny the fact that failure can teach many things in life and make a better person in future. I have put on a brave face while dealing with failures and have never allowed it to be an obstacle in my path.
Financial Crisis
Financial Crisis is quite uncertain and can come at every stage of one’s life. It is bound to catch a person off-balanced no matter how much he/she is ready for the bad times. There have been times when during any kind of financial crisis, I have got frustrated and stressed out at times. But I have dealt with it bravely by facing reality analysing the situation and learning to stand on my own feet again.
Career Pressure
On embarking on a journey to be a successful person, one has to face work-related issues. Several problems might arise like getting along in one’s career. There might be issues related to not being paid for the promotion a person had longed for. The issue of career pressure has been predominant in recent times. I have been successful in dealing with issues related to career pressure like personal issues or attitudinal problems in the past by making good analyses in getting the situation back to normal.
Unfair Treatment
The world seems to be filled with people who are unjust and unfair and behave in the most unprofessional manner when they come to power. There have been times when I have been treated very badly by my boss which has not been the cause of my issues or breakdown. I have learned to deal with it most professionally by not taking it too seriously.
Inner Peace
People never feel contented in life even after achieving so many things. The inner peace which they seek seems to be vanished. It has happened in my case quite sometime when I had felt very exhausted at times trying to seek inner peace within myself. But I have found a way out in achieving the deserved inner peace by acting differently.
Mental Health Issues
Mental Health Issues do not deal with serious disorders and diseases. These are issues that are mostly ignored by people because they believe that they do not make sense. However mental issues are delicate issues and should not be ignored by people. During our fast-paced lifestyle, a person suffering from anxiety and depression should be given treatment as soon as possible
Conclusion
No barrier is too hard to overcome. The problems that I have faced in my entire life have not been mere problems but challenges. The experiences that I have incurred in my daily life in facing such challenges have helped in becoming a better and stronger person than ever before.
