Positive psychology 08.10.2016

Dear readers, each of us, at least once in our lives, has found ourselves in crisis situations, and everyone knows that “saving drowning people is the work of the drowning people themselves,” and that, even if everything is very bad, there is still a way out!

And today on the blog I want to present to you a kind of continuation of the topic raised in the article from Marina Tamilova, a teacher, psychologist and person of diverse hobbies. I give the floor to Marina, who this time will share with you her own recipe for getting out of difficult life situations that often abound in our lives.

Dear readers, in today’s article I want to offer you my personal, working, method of pulling yourself out of a dead end in life. No matter how bad you feel, sooner or later you will have to pull yourself together and move forward. I hope I can help you with this...

What's the worst thing in life?

Life often presents a person with surprises: both pleasant and unpleasant. Some have more pleasant things, while others have the opposite. Sometimes people live for years in misfortunes and stress, not just imagined, but very real: an endless series of illnesses, deaths of relatives, impoverishment, family breakdown and even homelessness. Such troubles simply kill a person from the inside, destroying his soul and leading him further and further from unity with the Absolute.

The worst thing in this situation is that many cannot stand it (and they can be understood), they are offended by the whole world and turn away from the Source from which we all came. It is very difficult not to be offended when the most difficult trials befall you. While other people live and enjoy life to the fullest. How to explain to a normal person who is trying to live according to his conscience that all problems come from himself, and people and God have absolutely nothing to do with it.

You should always understand that the life situation you have in the present is the result of your actions or, conversely, inaction in the past. There is no point in being offended by this. A person always has a choice: to be offended or not, to help someone, to return evil for evil or not, to choose this particular person or another as a spouse, to accept a low-paid job and complain about poverty, or to take responsibility for your life and create yourself anew in accordance with your ideas about your own life.

Most often, a person chooses to do nothing because he is scared and does not know what awaits ahead. We are not used to freedom. Especially the older generation, who grew up in the Soviet Union and are accustomed to the fact that everything in life is written down and understandable. At that time, a good education guaranteed employment and good earnings, but now it does not. Many forty-year-old, well-educated people became confused and could not find their place in life, which led to a series of suicides and mental disorders in the 90s.

“Thanks to” perestroika, we lost several generations of “psychological children, teenagers and young men” who simply could not adapt. The more resilient survived and rose up, able to fight for their “place in the sun” both physically and mentally. But only 10% of the population is like that. They are the ones who occupy places on the Forbes lists.

The most difficult thing in our time is for “psychological young people” - these are people, often with several higher educations, very smart and comprehensively educated. Unfortunately, they are used to thinking a lot, but not doing. That is why they are at very low levels of society, and sometimes below the poverty line, if they were unable to adequately “sell” their intellect. In general, most people behave as if they have 500 years left to live, as Bill Gates once put it.

Life's dead end. What to do? How to find a way out of a difficult situation

There are several options:

  • go to people for help;
  • help someone who is worse off;
  • carry out general cleaning of the house;
  • get rid of negative thoughts and beliefs;
  • forgive everyone;
  • stop being offended altogether;
  • get out of your comfort zone;
  • take responsibility for your life.

The last item on this list is the most important. You need to understand that no one, instead of you, will create you anew or make you a completely different person.

They can help you financially, if you’re lucky, they can help you with work, but no one, instead of you, will mold you into a new strong personality who will be able to live by your own rules and at the same time succeed. Nobody argues that it is difficult. Especially when there is emotional instability. Periods of inspiration and activity are replaced by times of complete despair and the feeling that nothing will ever work out, and it is better to “go with the flow”, leaving everything as it is. And now specifically what you personally need to do to change your life.

Mapping out our life

Sit in silence and write down in detail what you want in life. Do not be shy. For example, if you want a yacht and a villa in Italy, then write, no matter how stupid and unrealistic it all may seem to you.

Visualization

Find bright pictures of your future life, stick them on a large sheet of whatman paper along with your photographs in luxurious interiors next to a handsome prince or princess. Whatman paper needs to be hung in the most visible place in your apartment. This is very inspiring.

Looking for inspiration

Find music and meditation that inspires you personally on the Internet and listen to it every day.

What about grievances?

Get rid of all grievances honestly and be sure that if you don’t do this, it’s the same as “to spite the conductor” - buy a ticket and walk. It is the accumulated grievances and the old rubbish of unfinished affairs and desires that does not allow you to move forward. If you are a Christian, go to church often and pray. For some, this helps a lot in difficult situations. Confess, take communion, light candles and pray for everyone who has offended you. This will bring invaluable benefits to your soul.

Moments of kickbacks

In moments of “kickbacks”, when you want to roar and do nothing, sit and roar, break dishes, throw things around, dance until you drop to let off steam. And when the hysteria ends, put things in order and start all over again. Over time, such disruptions will become less and less common. Everyone has them. It is your EGO that resists releasing you into a new bright life. Not only the EGO resists, but also the egregor of the negativity that you have been accumulating for years. Egregors are unique energy fields to which each of us is connected. Egregors feed on your emotions. If you live mostly in negativity, then you attract negative egregors to yourself, who do not benefit from you changing.

Little steps and baby steps

Do a little something every day to move towards your goal. Don't be upset because you can't do it. Sooner or later it will work out if you are persistent enough and don’t stop halfway. If you don’t regularly create yourself and your life, then life, the environment and other people will create you, and they will do it in such a way that you will not like it at all.

Our action plan

Make a plan for your actions in the real world and a list of psychological practices that you need to perform every day to get out of a crisis situation. Exercise helps you move forward and neutralize fears, anxiety and pessimism. Also include regular physical activity in your daily schedule, since your body is the “temple of the soul.” The better your body is, the more energy, will and strength you have to create your new life.

Just start doing

It must be said that many people do everything I wrote about above, but never move on to real action, unable to move themselves at all. This happens because your thoughts are still negative. Subconsciously, you do not yet believe in yourself and feel that you are unworthy of change.

What to do about it? It will take time for you to develop the habit of replacing each of your negative thoughts with 2-3 positive ones. For example: “I won’t succeed” you can replace with “I am God’s beloved child, and all his blessings are created for me”, “if God is for me, then who is against me?”, “I always succeed because that God directs all my actions.”

For atheists and representatives of other religions, I note that the word God here means the Creator of all things, the Universe, which exists independently of any beliefs and religions created by man. This is the Absolute, which is above everything and which is the most powerful energy of unconditional love from which we all came.

In addition to cleansing your thoughts, you will also need to cleanse your body, which is also accustomed to experiencing suffering. Slags and toxins accumulate in the body not only from alcohol, nicotine and junk food, which we all consume, especially in moments of psychological stress and melancholy. Negativity from corresponding mental thought forms also gets stuck in the body. We feel it in tense muscles, a distorted and gloomy face, and chronic diseases. That is why massage, releasing body blocks and physical exercises must be made your constant companions on the path to a brighter future.

Effective practices for getting out of life's impasse

In conclusion, I will give several effective first aid methods when the thought that “everything is bad and will always be like this” has once again struck:

  • smile - to let the body know that everything is fine;
  • jump - to shake and invigorate the body;
  • walking, sitting and living only with a straight back - this is fundamentally important, because... energy flows through the spine;
  • pinch yourself by the little finger - to pull you out of bad thoughts;
  • to the question “how are you?” ALWAYS answer “the best!”;
  • take different routes home and to work, preferably on foot, to create a feeling of change and vigor.

When you learn to pull yourself out of a state of melancholy using such methods, you can more closely focus on tuning into the positive wave of your inner world using the techniques indicated in this article.

I thank Marina for her thoughts. On my own behalf, I want to say that you should never give up, no matter what happens in your life. If something happens, these are all just our lessons. This means that for some reason we need to go through everything. I've been through so much myself. And every time I looked for a way out of their crisis.

Perhaps many will say, after reading the steps, all this is trivial, I did it, it didn’t help me, nothing can be changed, and some of these thoughts will continue. I would like to emphasize this point: when a person is stressed, it is very rare that he himself will be able to get out of the crisis. Emotions just run wild and prevent us from thinking. The exception is people who already have a lot of wisdom, a lot of knowledge about our work on ourselves.

Do not isolate yourself under any circumstances! Look for a person, perhaps a professional, who will be close to you, whom you can hear. This could be a psychologist, a wise friend, or useful useful books. And ask the Universe for help. I remember how, in the most difficult times, I would go to the window in the evening, look at the starry sky, ask questions and ask for strength to cope.

There is no one recipe for everyone. We are all different. But you definitely need to look for something that will help you get out of a crisis situation. This is our path.

And the most important thing for all of us, as Marina correctly wrote, is to make our CHOICE. This applies to everything. And health, and wonderful work worthy of you, and a loved one nearby, and simple joys. I wish everyone a worthy choice, wisdom and steps, work in this direction.

Dear readers, it is difficult to capture the immensity in one article. If you're having a hard time, check out our section. I am sure that you will find a lot of useful things for yourself. Perhaps this is where your work on yourself will begin, including getting out of the crisis.

    Answer

Good day, our dear readers! Irina and Igor are in touch again. Life is diverse and for each of us, it prepares something “of its own.” You can never even guess what awaits us in the future, not to mention the future. Often life prepares real “tests” for us: tests of our strengths, capabilities, faith, feelings or something else.

Such difficult situations either make us stronger or completely “break” us. Today we want to discuss the question of how to find a way out of a difficult life situation.

Emotions

Difficult situations happen in the lives of each of us, sometimes even too often. But this is not a reason to fall into despair or break up into thousands of actions at the same time. First you need to deal with your emotions.

You should not blame yourself for what happened or accumulate resentment towards someone else, as this will not bring you any closer to a way out of the current situation. But you shouldn’t accumulate negative emotions in yourself! Try to remove them in the safest way for yourself or others.

For example, go to the gym and show the punching bag “who’s boss,” or try to express your feelings in a painting, on paper, in the sand, or through some other creative approach.

The method of “shouting” is no less effective. Just try not to use it on loved ones or friends. It is better if you find the object of your angry scream among the stones in nature. You can even draw a face on the stone to make it easier to speak out.

Hardening

Everyone knows the phrase:

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger!

This is exactly the case here! Difficult situations appear in every person's life from time to time, and this does not mean that they should be feared or avoided. It just means that life “considers” you to be a strong opponent and wants to “test” the depth of your strength!

They say there is a simple truth:

Hard days don't come to those who can't handle them!

Remember this in difficult times. Remember that you should not give up even when it seems that “everything is lost.” Take the next difficulties of life as a strengthening element!

Respite

Sometimes, in order not to mess things up, you need a little break. You should abstract yourself from the problem and try not to think about it for a while. This measure is needed in order to see the best solution in the current situation.

Go for a walk with your children or in nature, take time to meditate, or simply devote attention to a hobby that will distract you.

Such actions will help you “get away” from the problem for a while. And returning to it again will provide you with a “new angle” of viewing, which you can use to get out of this situation to your benefit.

Flexible plan

Does any “deviation” from the plan make you panic? Do you regard this as an emergency situation requiring large expenses?

In this case, you just need to improve your skills, structuring tasks and determining priorities. Pay attention to learning time management techniques that will allow you to become more “flexible” in making plans and controlling the time for their implementation.

You can get acquainted with these techniques using video courses:

  • “The Master of Time – highly productive time management according to the system of Evgeniy Popov”
  • “Time management, or how to increase your efficiency”

Flow

Some difficult situations may not lend themselves to analysis, or you cannot find a way out of such circumstances for a long time. In such cases, it is useful to let everything take its course.

Perhaps this approach will allow you to relax and discover an unexpected solution. Or the very “flow” of time will correct the current situation in your favor.

You don’t have to spend this time aimlessly, think about the possible consequences or possible new difficulties. It is useful at this time to assess your strength, capabilities and energy reserves to withstand everything.

Knowing what can happen and what to do in this case will also be useful. For example, study the book by Leslie Garner, Brian Luke Seaward “Crises are life lessons. Life in harmony (set of 2 books)" .

Learn a lesson

All situations in life teach us something.

Difficult situations teach us even more than the entire school curriculum.

It is important to be able to highlight for yourself the most important lesson that life has taught you. It will become invaluable in terms of building and achieving in your life.

But this does not mean that the main idea of ​​difficulties will be: “I’m not ready! I will never be able to do this!” No! It's just: “I'm not ready! I need more knowledge to pull this off!”

Never forget about learning and strive to learn more, for example, you can take a free online video course “Setting and achieving goals. How to achieve results in any business? .

How do you cope with difficult life situations? Do you prefer to find a way out or try to “go with the flow”? Share your knowledge.

Best regards, Irina and Igor

NATA KARLIN

How many times do we mentally return to the time when we could have “laid down a straw”, but we didn’t do it. And now we are faced with an unimaginable task - to find a way out of a difficult situation. Our brain is feverishly looking for options for the development of events, trying to have time not only to find the treasured “door”, but also to act so as not to “lose face”.

For some, a hopeless situation is like a labyrinth in which a person wanders in search of a solution to the problem. For others, it seems that the ground has disappeared from under their feet, and they are flying into the abyss. Each person perceives it differently. However, always ask yourself the question: “What should I do?” But never look for those to blame for your problem. What happened to you, first of all, is only your own fault. Do not waste your efforts on unnecessary clarification of relationships, direct them towards making constructive decisions.

Remember how Nikolai Fomenko spoke about hopeless situations? Brilliant saying: “Even if you are eaten, there are always two ways out.” Therefore, remember the rules for getting out of a difficult situation:

You are already inside this problem, it is impossible to avoid it, and you will not be able to return to the starting point.

Ask your acquaintances or friends for help. It may be easier for you to tell your problem to a stranger who will give you good advice.

Many people are used to solving their problems on their own. If you are one of them, close the doors, turn on quiet music, and start looking for a way out. Don’t force yourself to “bow” to strangers. If you don't want anyone else to take part in solving the problem, don't. Do it all yourself.

Breathing exercises.

While looking for a way out of the situation, a person remains in a state. At this moment, his blood pressure rises, his heart beats wildly, sweating increases, etc. Right now, breathing exercises (yoga, tai chi) will come in handy. It's good if you already know them, but it's never too late to start learning.

Nature has a relaxing effect on the human nervous system. This is especially true for large open bodies of water. Therefore, try to leave all your worries and go for a walk to the lake. Sit, think, look at the surface of the water, the swans and ducks swimming on it. Try to plunge into the water yourself. If it happens in the summer, then a river or lake is suitable, if in winter - a swimming pool. As a last resort, lie in the bathtub with a few drops of vanilla and rosemary. Water helps you concentrate, discard everything unnecessary, and come to the right decision.

Physical training.

In order to feel in good shape every day, it is not necessary to exercise to the point of exhaustion. To concentrate your thoughts on the problem, engage in monotonous, uncomplicated activities. For example, clean out your home, garage, or storage room.

Have you given up embroidery or knitting for a long time because you simply didn’t have enough time for it? Find it now. Be sure to do something pleasant and useful for yourself. Finally, if you have never had this hobby, go to the cinema.

Be healthy.

Of course, there is no direct relationship between the search for a way out and the state of your health. But to make good use of the time you spend looking for a way out of the situation, health prevention is a good idea. Every person thinks that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow he will go to the doctor and improve his health, which has deteriorated over the years. But tomorrow or the day after tomorrow may never come. Therefore, choose the moment when you feel too sorry for yourself, so you need to do something pleasant for your own body.

Of course, men will laugh now. But don’t lie! They also like this feminine word. Buy what you've been wanting for so long. Treat yourself to your loved one, because today too much has been spent on finding a way out of the situation. Have you been staring at those red shoes in the window for a long time? Buy them, finally, stroke your pride. Do you like alloy wheels that will look so great in the overall design of the car? Don't deny yourself anything! The joy of the purchase is above all! And in the evening, when the euphoria subsides and only a feeling of deep satisfaction remains, start looking for solutions again.

Every person in this life has a dream of an intangible plan. For some, it’s going to the opera, others want to be on the ocean shore under the moon, others dream of finally going to their parents in the village.

Life is too fleeting, and dreams remain unfulfilled. Therefore, if you have the financial opportunity, drop everything and go to adventure or to mom and dad. At one point, you realize that it was this trip or hike that became the starting point from which the process began, during which you found a way out of a conflict or other unpleasant situation.

Now we do not mean people who have become your friends. Let's talk about pets. Every person thinks about having a pet. Maybe this is the moment? Today he will delight you with his presence, and will not let you down after stress, and tomorrow you will become his best friend. Now you just need to choose who it will be - a puppy, a kitten, a parrot or silent fish.

Think about the problem, don't discount it. She won't go anywhere without your participation. After all, it is only yours, and no one can decide it for you. However, don’t go in a vicious circle, don’t drive yourself into a corner, much less into stress. Try to align your thoughts

Every person must understand one simple truth: hopeless situations do not exist. All life's problems can be solved. When grief occurs, it is difficult to believe that the pain will subside. But some time passes, and a person learns to live on, accepting reality as it is. How to find a way out of a hopeless situation? Read about it below.

Finding the real problem

A person needs to be aware of the true cause of his problems. People deceive themselves and do not try to eliminate the cause of their plight, but stubbornly treat the effect. How to find a way out of a hopeless situation? You need to understand how you got into this difficult situation and what could make it worse. A person who has experienced some kind of grief (for example, the death of a parent) may think that life is over. But the problem is not that the parents died, but that the person feels lonely and is afraid of remaining unwanted. This is exactly the problem that needs to be solved. When a person admits to himself that he is afraid of loneliness, he can turn to friends or his significant other. For a time, the support of another person can be comforting. And then, when the emotions from the loss of relatives subside, a person will need to come to terms with the idea that a person comes to this earth alone and in the end also remains alone.

Learn from everything

How to find a way out of a hopeless situation? One of the difficult but effective ways is to understand why fate gave you the opportunity to go through the test. A person is not given such problems that he could not survive. If you had the chance to go through the betrayal of a friend, then you needed to gain this experience. Any person gets exactly the experience he needs. The person did not live up to your expectations and you were upset? And who is to blame for this? Only you. Perhaps you are too demanding or set the bar too high for people to consistently meet. Learn to see something positive in all troubles. After all, life is a school that gives us lessons. Some people study well and therefore have fewer problems in life, but careless students always have a lot of problems. A person will step on a rake until he gets a bump and remembers that he shouldn’t step on a rake.

Don't look for someone to blame

People like to blame fate or their environment for all troubles. Such persons often reproach themselves for the mistakes they have made. This is not worth doing. How to find a way out of a hopeless situation? First of all, you should realize that no one is to blame for your misfortunes. Look at adversity and difficult situations as a life lesson or a chance to become a better person. Even if the offense was committed by your friend, there is no need to swear at him. Close people always do something good for you. Even if they do stupid things, their intentions are always good. Therefore, there is no need to complain that your environment is bad. After all, next to you now are exactly the people you deserve. Is there something you're not happy with? Then change your environment. If you want to change something in life, then change it. But start with yourself. It’s stupid to go around blaming everyone for your failures; it won’t change your life.

Brainstorm

How to quickly find a way out of a hopeless situation? One simple way is brainstorming. How to carry it out correctly? Sit in a quiet room and take a piece of paper. Record the time, no more than ten minutes. Until the alarm clock rings, you will need to write down options and solutions to your problem. They may look different. Some of them will seem very practical to you, while others will seem too ridiculous. Write whatever comes to mind. There is no need to evaluate what is happening. You will have time to do this later. In the allotted time, you need to write as many different scenarios as possible for the development of events.

When the alarm goes off, take a break or go do your own thing. You will need to return to the piece of paper after some time and evaluate what you have written. By reviewing the options for solving the problem, you will definitely find several good ways to get out of the impasse that you had not noticed before.

Help from a friend

Morning pages or diary

A person must understand that if he does not somehow change his life, then nothing in it will change. Simoron adhered to this opinion. How to find a way out of a hopeless situation? Psychologists say that the best doctor for a person is himself. You can really help yourself if you try to get to know yourself better. How to do it? Start writing your morning pages. This should be done immediately after you wake up. Get out of bed and immediately sit at the table. Don't get up from it until you've written three pages. What should you write about? About anything. You must pour out all your problems, fears, desires and unresolved problems on paper. Along the way, you can make all kinds of plans, lists, and even find answers to your own questions. What is the essence of such a miraculous method? After waking up, a person has not yet completely recovered from sleep and can maintain contact with his subconscious for some time. This is what will help answer many questions.

If you don't have time to write in the morning, write in the evening. The diary will work worse than morning pages, but the principle of working with it is the same. Be sure to set the bar for yourself. For example, do not write less than three pages. Only when you have completely spoken out on paper can you begin to look for solutions to your problems.

Setting goals

Have you heard of conspiracies? It is impossible to find a way out of a hopeless situation in this way. Witchcraft will not help a person. But what will really have a beneficial effect is setting goals. A person who does not know how to live further must come up with a purpose for his existence. These could be desires or some kind of mission. Some people want to make the world a better place, while others will strive to write a novel or realize their creative potential in another way.

Goals help a person see the light at the end of the tunnel. When a person knows that a bright future may await him, all he has to do is make an effort, and life begins to play with new colors. When you find yourself in a difficult situation, think about what you have dreamed about all your life. It's time to make the dream come true.

Detailed elaboration of the plan

How to find a way out of a hopeless situation? The advice will be like this. Write a list of goals and desires, and then figure out how to make your dream come true step by step. You need to think through everything down to the smallest detail. The planning stage cannot be skipped. Why? When a person has a paper with step-by-step actions written in front of his eyes, it will be easier to get down to business. A plan helps you calm down and understand that the goal is quite achievable, you just need to make an effort.

The action plan should be as detailed as possible. It is clear that it is impossible to take everything into account. But you have to try. Think ahead about what could go wrong and how mythical problems can be resolved. Having not only a main plan, but also a backup plan, you can act decisively. But always remember that the plan is only an approximate route. Never be afraid to change your plans according to the current situation.

Getting to Action

Don't put off realizing your desires until later. What to do in a hopeless situation? You should start with one small step. You need to do at least something from your list. And the main thing is regularity. Go towards your goals. Let the steps be small, but they must be taken every day. Do you want to become a famous artist and get out of a creative crisis? Draw every day. You may feel that your creativity is mediocre. It doesn't matter. The main thing is that you pick up a pencil and draw every day, without exception. Let it be 30 minutes first, then an hour, and then three. Don't demand too much from yourself at once. Gradual work on yourself will definitely give results.

Get out of your comfort zone more often

What should be first aid in a hopeless situation? A person should step out of his comfort zone more often. A person who withdraws into himself and his world cannot move on. A person must understand that life goes on, and it can be bright and colorful. But in order to transform your drab everyday life, you need to start taking action. Sign up for a course you've always dreamed of, or do something you'd never dare to do before. Adrenaline will help you feel the taste of life, and it will be easier for you to rehabilitate. A person who often leaves his comfort zone does not suffer from depression and rarely finds himself in hopeless situations. Why? The fact is that the human brain begins to work differently. He does not perceive difficulties as the end of the world; for him, difficulties are an interesting task that must be solved in the shortest possible time.

You should immediately find out from what hopeless situations in life you can look for a way out? Those in which the law takes “concern” for continued existence into its own hands are not worth thinking about. There is no way out of such situations - they need to be accepted and adapted.

Here at the stage "adapt" and you will have to mobilize yourself, as they do when the solution to the problem depends on themselves.

What to do in a hopeless situation?

A hopeless situation is a set of problems that seem to grow like a snowball rolling down a mountain. It rarely happens that there is only one problem. Once you sway, the number of troubles increases. The usual practice is that in such a situation a person begins to first of all look for the culprit of what happened, wastes time, and feels sorry for himself.

This is not constructive - in adults, problems rarely resolve on their own, and it is impossible to forget about existing troubles.

For children, the parents can make the decision, but here you have to figure it out yourself. How to find a way out of a hopeless situation and what to do if everything is “bad” in life?

Where to go in case of serious problems

In case of a hopeless situation, you need to turn to yourself. Stop feeling sorry for yourself and try to analyze what is happening.

Then you should put aside stupid pride and call for help from everyone who can assist in something. These could be close acquaintances, distant, former friends. If the situation is really serious, then you should try to find common ground with negative people. Previously, in such cases they used the expression “to ring the alarm.” It is very likely that during communication it will be possible to find a way out of the impasse.

At the same time, it is necessary to draw up an action plan, which includes a realistic assessment of events and the possibility of action.


  1. You need to take a position - difficulties are necessary in order to prove your worth. This means that you should not cry, but thank fate for the test;
  2. Next, they write down their thoughts - what they think about what happened, what needs to be done first, what feelings are hidden in the depths of their souls. Sad emotions should be discarded;
  3. Next, they figure out where to turn in a hopeless situation, collect information, calculate options for solving problems: where to go, what papers are needed, what is preventing them from doing this now...;
  4. The more options, the better. Let some of them be the most fantastic, but they can also contain crumbs of truth. You need to come up with at least 15-20 options. You can even dream how "it will be all plain sailing". Your soul will feel lighter;
  5. They outline the schedule for appeals and going to authorities - sometimes it is necessary to create a minute-by-minute schedule in order to be on time everywhere;
  6. You need to try to recruit assistants who will provide at least minimal assistance. It won’t take much time to bring in a piece of paper, and why not ask a friend who works near the desired office or organization about it.

Having drawn up a detailed action plan, you need to fully mobilize yourself to achieve success and not deviate from your plans. But alternative situations should always be considered - if the plan fails, actions are adjusted.

Psychological problems

When wondering whether there is a way out of a hopeless situation, one must not forget about the psychological problems that appeared after realizing the gravity of the situation. You should steer yourself away from depression, which often appears when you realize your own powerlessness or in stressful situations.


You can't isolate yourself. We need to try to reach out to people. These can be old friends and barely familiar people - let life be in full swing around you.

Next, you should act according to your own character. Some people need to speak out, others need to try to put their worries away. You can advise turning to God, going to church - communication with religion helps ease the soul.

But you shouldn’t go to extremes on the path of knowledge - there are sects that find “victims” among desperate people, so you shouldn’t blindly trust new acquaintances. If you had to retire from active life for a while, you should take it as a gift from fate. While you have the opportunity, you need to go in for sports, educate yourself, expand your intellect, go to the hairdresser and change your image. This will help you become more creative and achieve future success.

Everyone has their own methods of overcoming obstacles:

  • go to nature;
  • arrange shopping;
  • constantly visit noisy companies;
  • Internet communication.


If you have a dream, now is the time to realize it.

Jumping with a parachute or from a tower, throwing junk out of the house, making peace with an enemy or getting a dog - a “feat” will force you to mobilize to fight difficulties. You need to make your own existence as easy as possible in order to “emerge” full of strength in the future.

There are 3 ways out of crisis situations - you need to choose the best one for yourself.

  1. Look for solutions to the current problem, having first understood why it arose;
  2. Accept the situation and just go with the flow without making any effort to overcome it. Designate the crisis as a passed stage, and in the future do not focus on the past, trying to forget quickly. Yes, you have to come to terms with a lot, but sometimes this is the only way out to avoid serious losses and not change the circumstances to which you are accustomed.

This method is worth dwelling on in more detail. Family situation. If you don’t want to change the current way of life, then there’s no point in fighting for a “partner.” Most likely, he is waiting for the first step. There will be no step, everything will end on its own.


Work problems. It is very difficult to just tell a person to quit. If he himself does not begin to recognize and “twitch”, then the indecisive boss retreats for a while, and in the future the conversation may not take place at all.
