Accept adversity

Hard times are rubbish, but they make you what you are. Recognise that and know that if you can come through them, you will be more resilient, more capable and more confident. It’s a lucky person indeed who manages to avoid upset as they go through life; what’s important is how you deal with it. Try always to find a grain of good in all the bad you’re going through.

Embrace negativity

Feeling negative is actually normal. It’s a defence mechanism that flags up danger so you can avoid it. So, although you don’t want to be overwhelmed by negativity, know that it’s actually a healthy response to unpleasant situations.
