As humans we possess the desire to avoid problems and simultaneously have the tendency to experience boredom and low spirit when finding ourselves in a situation where everything is predictable, problems are routine and crises rarely if ever occur. We lament having to deal with unwanted obstacles in life and wish for a problem free existence and as soon as we find the opportunity to take it easy for a few months or retire early that is when the truth hits us: not having any problem is the worst problem indeed and it can rob us of happiness as much as, if not more than, most crises!

The human mind through our long evolution has become wired to feel its best when it actively pursues a goal that is important to the individual and it is through the process of learning and growing so as to achieve those desired goals that we experience the highest rewards at least as far as neuroscience is concerned. Another way to stimulate the brain and reap the rewards that come with it is to solve novel problems yet our desire to conserve energy and remain in our comfort zones ultimately deprive us of tapping into the benefits of solving novel problems most of which we tend to call crises.

That is precisely why today I would like to help you redefine words such as trouble, crisis, and losses and look at them as opportunities to grow, escape monotony and boredom, independently improve the quality of your life, and experience the dopamine boost of handling a difficult situation instead of escaping it.
Mental fitness is defined as a particular outlook on life that allows one to perceive the world in a way that empowers and motivates him or her in the face of dealing with obstacles, rejections, and setbacks instead of rendering him or her disempowered and disheartened. That is precisely what we all need today more than ever as we go through the global crisis that we are in these days.

Your ability to embrace and eventually solve unwanted problems and crises will be the hallmark of positivity and achievement and differentiate you from most of us who do whatever it takes to avoid problems and wallow in sorrow the moment we are stuck in cumbersome situations. Thus, any problem is not only a chance to break out of the monotony of a life inside the comfort zone but can also be a launchpad towards higher degrees of personal development and confidence.
The famous saying by Nietzsche “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” can be aptly applied here since having a warrior outlook on life will always prove more beneficial than that of a victim and the moment you embrace the problems and crises in life as a chance to become a better you and ideally benefit from it in some way that is precisely when you drop the attire of a victim and don the shining armor of a knight!
