Life is abundant, and life is beautiful but difficulties and struggles cannot be avoided. In this crazy life, and through these crazy times. How do you face your challenges in life?

Also give things your all, do the best you can always and and face problems head on if indeed there are any. I generally don't have difficulties. I invite challenges and if I don't succeed. I will shoot to exceed. - I make sure I don't take on difficulties of others. Outside of my Wife... they better swim it alone.

There are a whole host of books out there on positive thinking (part of bibliotherapy). It might seem unnecessary to use other people's thinking but instead to use one's own brain - but, especially at times of stress, the vacuum in the mind can so easily be flooded by negativity. Negativity seems to require no effort but positivity does. I could list dozens of positive-thinking quotes and will do so if you ask.
"Any day above ground is a good day." at 77, it woiks..... <grin> or "Too much stress will kill you, not enough challenge will kill you just as fast."
