How often a person finds himself in unpleasant situations in life depends on him as well. If you want to reduce the number of unwanted excesses to a minimum, work on yourself.
Instructions
Step 1
Realize your responsibility for your own life. As long as you believe that only fate has power over the course of events, you will not be able to influence the events that happen to you. Understand that a lot depends on your behavior. If an individual only complains about life and complains that troubles and bad luck lie in wait for him everywhere, the situation will not change.
Step 2
Watch your mood. Pessimistic individuals are more prone to getting into unpleasant situations. Remember that your thoughts are material and have a big impact on what is happening. Don't program yourself to fail. Better think that everything will be fine. A positive attitude helps not to notice minor troubles and quickly find a way out of major troubles. Keep your spirit awake under all circumstances.
Step 3
Adjust your behavior. Don't provoke trouble. Be logical and prudent in your actions, and you will be less likely to find yourself in an undesirable position. Indeed, sometimes it is your actions that entail unpleasant consequences. Think about the consequences of this or that act or statement.
Step 4
Appreciate the experience of past mistakes. Negative events that happened a long time ago should teach you how to behave and what not to do. It is extremely unwise to step on the same rake twice. The positive thing about the mistakes of the past is precisely that they help to make the present and the future better with the right approach to them.
Step 5
Plan your life, manage the reality that surrounds you. For events to develop according to the scenario you want, take an active position. Keep your goals in mind and try to achieve them.
Step 6
Do not compromise your own principles, do not do what you really do not want. By stepping over yourself, you betray both your beliefs and your own intuition. The consequences can be negative. If you do not want to get into an unpleasant situation, often listen to your inner feelings.
Step 7
Learn to better analyze your surroundings. This skill will help you more accurately understand what is happening and develop a plan of action in an incomprehensible situation. Collect information. Pay attention to details. Try to predict how events will develop.
Step 8
Learn to make decisions quickly. In a critical situation, this is necessary. Courage, calmness and self-confidence will help you with this. Trust yourself, be smart and quick to react.
