Times are tough. The nightly news is filled with stories of people who have lost their jobs due to the economic crisis, or lost their homes in a fire or natural disaster. Have you ever seen people who have just endured an awful situation? Some focus on what they have lost, and this is easy to understand. But other people focus on what they did not lose, and they start thinking about a better future.
One good piece of advice to remember is that you cannot always control situations or other people. The only thing you can control is your own personal reaction to bad situations. Sometimes a situation may really be overwhelming. However, in many cases, you really can influence our own moods by the way you think about negative situations.
Imagine two families: Both have lost their homes and all their belongings in a devastating storm. One family cannot mask their grief. They feel that everything they hold dear has been destroyed. They cannot imagine how they will ever be able to replace things and start over again. Their normal life seems to have been completely lost. In contrast, a second family is crying with joy. All of the people in their family are unharmed and safe. This family is just happy that everyone has survived. This family is already trying to figure out how they can recover. You can’t really blame the first family for experiencing a very normal reaction to a terrible situation. However, the second family certainly seems to be better off. They are thinking about making progress rather than focusing on the tragic events.
Though this scenario is extreme, everyone experiences setbacks that seem just awful at the time. This could be a job loss, illness, or problems with family members. Nobody gets through life without having some bad things happen. In these situations, try to focus on the steps you can take to remedy the situation, instead of how awful the setback is. By doing this, you will be laying the foundation for a better tomorrow. And you will not suffer as much pain today.
Actually, controlling how you feel and trying to maintain a positive attitude can help you through many tough situations. The bottom line is, no matter what the problem is, you are more likely to fix it if you can stay positive and work out a plan. Also, never be afraid to seek help when you need it. The advice of a friend, family member, or even a professional may be all it takes to get back on track.
It may sound like a cliché. While a positive attitude may not be the answer to every problem, it can certainly give you an advantage in surviving most of life’s minor setbacks.

Tạm dịch: Hãy tưởng tượng có 2 gia đình: Cả 2 gia đình đều mất nhà và toàn bộ của cải trong trận bão kinh hoàng. Một gia đình không thể che giấu nỗi buồn của họ. Họ cảm thấy rằng mọi thứ họ có đã bị phá hủy hoàn toàn. Họ không thế tưởng tượng họ có thể thay thế những thứ đã mất đi và làm lại như thế nào. Cuộc sống bình thường của họ dường như đã biến mất hoàn toàn. Ngược lại, gia đình thứ 2 lại reo hò trong niềm sung sướng. Tất cả mọi người trong gia đình của họ không bị thương và rất an toàn. Gia đình này cảm thấy hạnh phúc vì mọi người đều sống sót. Gia đình này đang cố gắng tìm ra cách để vượt qua. Bạn không thể trách gia đình số 1 vì đã phản ứng theo cách rất thông thường trước hoàn cảnh khó khăn. Tuy nhiên, gia đình thứ 2 chắc chắn có vẻ tốt hơn. Họ đang suy nghĩ về việc làm sao để cải thiện tình hình chứ không tập trung vào thảm kịch.
Từ đoạn văn này có thể thấy rằng: Mỗi gia đình có 1 thái độ khác nhau trước hoàn cảnh khó khăn, và thái độ của họ sẽ quyết định cách họ đối mặt với khó khăn như thế nào
