No One Has a Good Idea while Tiger is Chasing Him
While people are in trouble, they usually do not think soberly, and that is normal. While people are afraid or while they are stressed, they do not have any good idea, they cannot cope with the situation and because of that they are making mistakes.
Let's get back to the our metaphor, while tiger is chasing a person, that person can easily fall, because he or she does not see the rock on the road and he or she stumbles. Or for example, he or she cannot see some object that can be good for hidding. And the tiger is fast and strong, and he is getting closer and closer, and there he is.
What is the point is to learn how to cope with stress, to learn how to suppress the fear, because fear leads to more things that we will be afraid of. If you run and do not look in front of you and you stumble and fall tiger will be closer and you may get hurt, and those are two new things to worry about.
One thing that you are afraid of and worried about, will bring you more and more things to worry about. That is why you have to learn how to cope with all those bad, scary things, because they are all around of you.
There are many tigers and many of them are ready to chase you, many of them would love you to be their snack. But, you will not let that happen. Because you will learn how to cope with stress, you will show your teeth to those tigers or you will be stronger and you will not run away.
Until you face your tigers, you will not know if you are stronger than they are. And, if you are sure that you are not stronger and you have to run away, be sure to think soberly while doing that. Be sure to see every rock on the road and to see every object where you can hide from the tiger.
Just stay for a second, take a deep breath, and realize that you can only gain things, many very good things, if you stay calm and 'sober'. If you are calm you can solve your problems, you can escape from the tiger, you can cope with the situation.
Your problems and your tigers are not bigger and faster than you. You are amazing person and you will be even more amazing. You will learn how to cope with your problems, you will learn how to face your tigers.
You just have to remeber what is waiting for you at the end of your 'race' and always know what you can lose, but do not be afraid of that, because you will not lose it if you stay calm. Always stay calm, always think what you can do, how you can help yourself. Always think.
That is the key, think. Think about everything what is happening to you and around you. Listen, watch, learn how to find new opportunities. Listen to what other people have to say, watch what they are doing, you may learn from them how to solve problems that you have now. Many people were in that situation before you, you are not alone, it is possible to get out of that.
Just believe in yourself. Trust yourself and let yourself develop. You can learn how to solve your problems, you are atrong enough, smart enough and brave enough to solve your problems.
And, even if you do not solve all of your problems that is okay. It will be better next time, you will solve some next problems. You will learn, you will be better.
Just give yourself some support. This maybe sounds silly to you, but your own support means a lot to you. It is great to have people around you, that support you, it is amazing.
But, nobody is you, nobody knows all the details about your situation and nobody can know how exactlly you feel deep inside. That is why you need to support yourself, that is why you need to believe in yourself and always tell yourself to keep going. To keep moving forward. That is extremely important.
Always remeber that.
See you next time,
