生活是一场测试（2/2）

roblems, responsibilities, even insurmountable difficulties, when looked at as a test, you always have a chance to succeed, in the sense of rising above that which is challenging you. If on the other hand, you see each new issue you face as a serious battle that must be won in order to survive, you are probably in for a very rocky journey. The only time you are likely to be happy is when everything is working out just right. And we all know how often that happens.
As an experiment, see if you can apply this idea to something you are forced to deal with. Perhaps you have much pressure from your parents or you have a demanding boss. See if you can redefine the issue, you face from being a “problem” to being a test. Rather than struggling with your issue see if there is something you can learn from it. Ask yourself, “Why is this an issue, in my life? What would it mean and what would be involved to rise above it? Could I possibly look at this issue any differently? Can I see it as a test of some kind?”
If you give this strategy a try you may be surprised at your changed responses. It will become far more acceptable to you to accept things as they are.
