A person with a strong spirit can cope with absolutely all life trials, no matter how difficult and dangerous they may be. A strong spirit is diligently nurtured over the years, but all the effort spent is worth it to get such a valuable and rare human quality.
Instructions
Step 1
The first rule of a strong-minded person is not to run away from fear. The point is not to stop being afraid - this is impossible, because we are all people, we are alive and feel. The bottom line is not to be afraid to face that fear. Direct your gaze directly and honestly into the face of what you fear most in life. And then you overcome your fear, it evaporates, and you become an order of magnitude stronger in spirit, you seem to expand from within.
Step 2
For example, you are afraid of parting with a loved one. You are so afraid of this that you constantly replay painful scenes in your head, but you get scared and start crying. At this point, you are running away from what you are mortally afraid of. Try not to interrupt these pictures with tears and hysteria, but to "imagine" the whole scene of parting, from and to, in the smallest detail. At first, a dense horror from everything that happens will roll over you, you will suffer greatly at this moment, but after that you will feel that the horror disappears, and with it the fear. You will cease to be afraid of parting in reality, since you have already lived it in your head. And the strength of your spirit will increase, you will be ready for anything.
Step 3
Don't feel sorry for yourself. At the moment of facing a difficult situation, you begin to feel sorry for yourself, anger fate and others, blaming them for what happened. But you are only wasting energy on a thankless task that multiplies negative energy. Do not feel sorry for yourself, but devote all your strength to solving the problem.
Step 4
Don't cling to the past, live in the present. Taking only now, you are able to live no matter what. For example, if you have a disease that is difficult to cure, do not think about how good you were without it. Accept adversity and learn to live and deal with it. This requires fortitude, but it is brought up precisely because you make the decision to live in the present. It is such an interdependent circle centered on you and your decisions.
Step 5
Accumulate good life moments, positive memories and impressions. This is what will save you in any difficult situations, even when it seems that there is no improvement in the future. But joyful memories give hope that they will happen even ahead, one has only to believe in it.
Step 6
Learn to forgive. Whatever happens to you, whatever damage the betrayal inflicts on you, forgive the offender. Many religions teach this, and in this they are right. By forgiving, you are able to move forward.
Step 7
The strength of the spirit multiplies after each of your honest and courageous actions, and, at the same time, helps to cope with subsequent difficulties. Grasp this simple logic and start helping "yourself in the future" now.
