Importance of difficulties in life
Tuesday, 8 October 2024
There is a contradiction between the laws of difficulties and patience. Our brains naturally follow the principles of relaxation and effortlessness. However, not everything in our lives unfolds according to our wishes. These events are determined by The Almighty Allah and the matters of our destiny. Therefore, we must accept both the good and the bad. We should also be prepared to face the worst situations in our lives.
To deal with difficulties and hardships, we should identify the sources of our problems and find paths to solutions without succumbing to impatience. Additionally, we need to recognise what triggers our impatience and consider the consequences of our impatience. By practising patience, eliminating less important tasks, focusing on our goals, and ensuring physical relaxation, we can minimise our levels of impatience and better cope with the difficulties and hardships we encounter in life.
Moreover, we should remember that hardships and difficulties ultimately serve to strengthen us.
