MINDSET with Gambrah Sampeney Kwabena Adjei: In difficult situations

Sometimes, we find ourselves in difficult situations.

We make mistakes and things do not go as planned.

You might have taken on a project, borrowed money and things have backfired.

The project has stalled and you are struggling to make ends meet.

It is natural to feel overwhelmed and wonder why this is happening to you.

Acknowledge your mistakes

Yes, admit it! You made a mistake. Perhaps you were foolish or lacked wisdom and understanding. But do not dwell on it. Instead, focus on moving forward. Remind yourself that you are going through a process that will help you build a stronger mindset for future challenges.

Surround yourself with positivity

When you are facing problems, some people might say hurtful things to deflate you like: “I told you; yet you will not listen, look at what you have brought upon yourself.”

Stay away from them! Instead, focus on people who encourage and support you. They might say things like: “You are stronger, you will get through this; to be a millionaire, you need to go through such ordeals. This is a learning experience that will make you wiser”. Listen to their advice and take it to heart.

You can solve it

No matter how messed up things are, remember that you can solve the problem.

Be certain and settled in your mind that you are capable of overcoming it.

It is not easy but psych yourself up and keep moving forward.

Break the problem down into smaller, manageable bits and tackle each one at a time.

Stay calm and focused

When dealing with debt or financial issues, do not let emotions cloud your judgement.

Be bold and renegotiate the debt if need be. Be mentally prepared for the onslaught of verbal attacks and so on. Make cold cash decisions. Know how to let it out, especially when you are not assured of the inflow of it. Cash is king, so be careful with it.

Separate yourself from the problem

Remember that you are not the problem. It is just a situation you are facing.

Take a step back and focus on finding solutions.

Keep your mind stable and sane and think about how good it could be if you succeed.

Draw inspiration from that and move forward.

Stay positive

Fortify your mind with positive messages and motivational audios.

Repeat them often and believe in yourself.

Your state of mind is everything.

If you are positive, encouraged and hopeful, you are already on the path to solving your problem.
