They say life is made up of good and bad things happening around us. Today you have a great day but there are days when it’s just hard to deal with, disappointment is one. How to cope with this?
1. Be patient.
To be patient enough takes enough time and practice. It is not easy to switch from being impatient to patient. Make it your lifestyle, forgive and forget easily and always have an optimistic mindset.
2. Believe that everyone hastheir own struggles.
Having this mindset will make you more of a compassionate person. Instead of looking at how they hurt you, you look as if they have an identity, personal, family problems etc.
3. Learn to forgive easily.
This may be one of the hardest things but it is very crucial when you want to deal wisely with disappointment (with a person). Holding a grudge within yourself for a very long time is not healthy.
4. Getting over is notan option.
It is best to combine forgiving and forgetting. There are people that can forgive but can never forget. If you can forgive and forget, you are a rare one. One definition of love in the Bible is this, “Love does not keep the record of wrongs.”
In terms of goals, this is very important. If you are a goal-oriented person, it is really frustrating not meeting your goal along the way. But you must not dwell on this. Move on and believe that we are not in control of everything but God is.
Disappointment whether to a person or a situation, it really takes courage to deal with it accordingly. Remember that it is a part of life that you must deal with. Learn from your mistakes and accept that it is what it is. There are things that are not meant for us, what’s for you will be with you eventually.
