Implications
Don’t underestimate the role of outside support in igniting your inner strengths. Whenever you feel that you’re not coping well with a challenging situation, don’t judge or blame yourself. Instead, it might be a question of missing resources. Or, perhaps, you have the resources (for example, friends that you can count on), but you are not using them (you don’t reach out).
Instead, ask yourself:
- What do I need to handle the situation better?
- If I have what I need, how can I integrate it into my circumstances?
- If I don’t have what I need, who can I ask for help?
