Join the Fun!

It’s only human that things sometimes fall out of our hands. It feels like the world is against you for some unreasonable reason and to call it irritating would be a hefty understatement. But if we can’t change a bad day, we can always change the way we look at it. And here we’re going to need some help from a professional. So to find out more about resilience and the power of positivity, we spoke with Susan Petang, a certified divorce coach and the creator of “The Quiet Zone Coaching,” who teaches people how to stop feeling overwhelmed and start waking up happy in the morning again.

The first step towards building mental resilience is instead of viewing these unfortunate moments as "failures" or "misfortunes," view them as learning opportunities, Susan argues. She urges us to think of a couple of things: “What can we learn from this? How can we use this to become a better human being/worker/parent/partner?” and added that crucially, it's a matter of mindset.

It turns out that some people are more naturally resilient than others. “But it's because they learned to think positively at a young age,” Susan said. “Our attitude towards life - the good, the bad, and the ugly - is formed before we go to kindergarten. Positivity isn't about putting your head in the sand and singing 'lalalala' when bad things happen; it's actually just the knowledge that we'll be OK no matter what,” the life coach explained.

According to Susan, positivity and resilience are very closely related. “Positivity is the understanding and belief that you'll be able to bounce back from anything; resilience is when you actually do it.”If your day is going against the plan and you feel like you could blow up anytime, Susan shared some very useful insights on how to put yourself together and get back on track.

“I teach my clients to use The Power Questions. It's a great way to interrupt the spiral of emotions when everything is hitting the fan!” They are as follows:

“How important is this, really? Don't make mountains out of molehills.

What is something positive and constructive I can do about this? Be solution-oriented instead of blame-oriented.

What emotions am I feeling right now? By identifying and labeling them, we shrink their power over us."

I understand being scared if the spider is venomous (and big enough to cause harm), although, if you leave it alone you'll be absolutely fine - they're not interested in you. However, these people saying "burn them", talking about baby/harmless spiders need to get over their fear. Spiders play a HUGE roll in pest control - especially disease carrying pests. If a spider visits your home, you're actually lucky.

22points

Blackstone 2 years ago (edited)

Okay, so I do understand that and will coexist with a spider staying in it's lane (web) and killing bugs. I will allow a spider to live at my window or door. But I do not like spiders on the move. And I certainly will not allow it to cuddle with my bed. The only thing with fangs allowed in my bed is my cat.

Ja Le Gr 2 years ago (edited)

Spiders play a huge part in what you are saying, but primarily outside. Baby harmless spiders, go on to birth hundreds of thousands of more spiders, again inside an enclosed space where there are no mosquitoes or anything else that can harm me. Woke up the other day and there was one on the ceiling almost directly over me, I've literally had spiders drop down on me from the ceiling, so big old nope from me!

Lucky? Tell that to 12 year old me who was bitten by a black widow that was in my bedroom and spent days in the hospital because I had a severe reaction. I now have a huge fear of any spider being in my house. How about you not criticize people of their fears and remember that PTSD is a serious issue. You do not get to dictate what anyone needs to "get over" and if you disagree with anything anyone is saying about said fears, then just shut your pie hole and move on!

Floof 2 years ago

I get what you're saying but many people probably got their fears from a bad encounter. I for one have been terrified of spiders my whole life, I can't get anywhere near them. usually, I just have my brother put it outside for me. so I don't think it's fair to tell people to "Get over their fears" and most people are just joking when they say stuff like burn them.

Hahaha this reminds me of when my daughter lost her iPhone about 5 years ago. We'd been at a supermarket and thought that's it, it's gone for good. I tried calling it and blow me a guy answered it, and said yes he had found it and we could meet up to collect it. It wasn't local but we were chuffed with the good news. 24 hours later I meet the chap and he gives me the phone. I give him an envelope with some money as a gesture of profound gratitude and he hands me a phone that looked quite a bit like this one. For sometime she kept it covered with tape so she didn't cut herself on the glass. Though it sounded like things took a turn for the worse it did give her the opportunity to save all the photos and numbers and get everything transferred to a new phone. If I remember rightly only half the screen was inaccessible! Oh yes, it had been run over in the carpark, quite possibly by me.
