Are you a " why me " person or do you grab the bull by the horns?

and become stronger through difficult times?

Are you a %26quot; why me %26quot; person or do you grab the bull by the horns?
I%26#039;m so strong I grab the bull by the hips and man Handle it!! And when I%26#039;m done I tell that bull %26quot;tell your friends about me%26quot;!
Reply:No,I am not.What I know is that: every situation or problem,always has a solution,or way out,always.
Reply:They %26quot;why me%26quot; causes me to grab the bull by the horns. I get stubborn through tough times.
Reply:Ofcourse, different challenges might evoke different reactions in me. During some challenges, like say, a breakup, I usually go through a depressing period of this kind of self-talk, and then at the end of it, after hitting rock-bottom, there is no other choice but to rise to the occassion, take one day at a time, take care of myself, try to see things in a different perspective, take positive strides, little by little, towards my goals.





If I don%26#039;t know why it happened to me, I might think it was my choice and I had a role to play, rather than chance. Taking responsibility for %26quot;our%26quot; role in whatever happened gives me a bit of control. And if I feel it was a random, unexpected thing happening, then I just try to think that life is random and complex in many ways with no results gauaranteed...and just becuase I got struck with something challenging, does not mean the universe is out to get me. I also do feel, that it is important to not become jaded and sad about life with the challenges we undergo. Ofcourse, we should learn the lessons we need to learn, but we should also try to keep our innocence and purity of heart as we go along life.





It feels good to vent our immediate instinctive feelings, and we can do that in a journal, with a trusted friend, or a patient counselor...but a time comes when we simply have to get the courage to deal with things, graduate to positive empowering thoughts and actions and move on to the future.
Reply:I tend to be more of a %26quot;grab the bull by the horns%26quot; type of person. You can only ask %26quot;why me?%26quot; so many times before you realize that it%26#039;s done in futility. Asking why something has to happen, and to you, will not get you anywhere. Eventually you just have to accept that things are bound to happen, whether good or bad, and that you have to make the most of it--learn from it, make yourself a better and stronger person, and know that as a result of facing adversity it makes you that much stronger and more prepared to handle the next time life decides to deal you a bad hand.





Questioning the who or why of a difficult situation just sets you up for future setbacks. You have to rise to the occasion and overcome it, not submit to defeat. It is in %26quot;grabbing the bull by the horns%26quot; that you show that you are up to the task of being the better and stronger person that EVERYONE has the potential to be.

Reply:Well I%26#039;m an inbetween person, sometimes I%26#039;m a %26quot;why me%26quot; and sometimes I%26#039;m a %26quot;head on%26quot; person.
Reply:I deteste %26quot;why me%26quot; people....Its you because its your turn! Just get on with it and don%26#039;t whine like a puppy!
Reply:Both. I tend to %26quot;why me%26quot; the situation when I%26#039;m alone. When I%26#039;m with others, I pull myself up by my bootstraps and get moving. I don%26#039;t ask anyone else to wallow with me...well, maybe my best friend sometimes. We have to complain sometimes, don%26#039;t we?
Reply:In difficult times, I grab the bull by the horns and fight my way through. I do not sit idly by and say %26quot;why me?%26quot; Mainly because that accomplishes nothing.





I knew an old lady several years back who spent her whole life saying, %26quot;Why me?%26quot; whenever anything bad happened. She was a miserable wreck of a person who seemed to be a magnet for bad things. She usually brought them on herself because she was so willing to be a victim. I took a good long look at myself and decided I didn%26#039;t want to be that way when I was 80. So I never accept any less than what I want and I never give up. I don%26#039;t waste my time asking %26quot;Why me?%26quot; because bad things happen to everyone and feeling sorry for myself would only make more bad things happen.
Reply:S*** happens to nice people too.
