After reading the article by Ms. Ann Harrington, "Where there is a will, there's a way", it opened my eyes and my way of believing to a hold different level. I constantly wondered how individuals who have experienced some of the exact same levels of disappointment, obstacles, successes, and failures stroll away with extremely various attitudes, situations and results (Werner, 2004). It has actually constantly been my belief that in order to conquer any challenge in life, whether it's expert or personal that it does come from within and it is a mind thing (Davies, 2009).
Each private really does manage whether they prosper or stop working; this is an extremely difficult tablet to swallow, since I haven't rather grab the capability to do it yet, but I do understand this holds true. Much like the limitations that we set on ourselves is the reason some of us do stop working. We tend to make errors and instead of owning up to them we wish to blame others.
The secret here is much like mentioned in the short article to be absolutely truthful with ourselves. To be able to take a look at our situation and deal with the reality this was our own fault and do what we have to, to correct the situation. In the article the very first thing Ms. Harrington spoke about was durability in the office (Lack Management: Annual Survey Report, 2011).
It was right on point, when I thought back on days when I worked outside the home, there was not much compassion from my employer whether his employees felt good physically, mentally, or spiritually (Davies, 2009).
They were not concerned with anything about the employees except whether you came to work on time, you performed the duties of your job, you treated their customers fairly, and they were able to keep their stockholders happy. The bottom line was the bottom line and that was all they were concerned about. I do agree, that it's very important for a person to have a good mental health not just about the It's also important for someone to be able not only to encourage others but themselves as well, and for them to be able to be totally honest about their own personal strengths and weaknesses. To be able to look at a bad or mundane situation and make it better. Not just looking at what others can do to make it better, but what can they do, and what we need to do, to turn the situation around. I find that too many higher ups look for the people who work under them to put their thoughts in action when things get rough, but what they don't understand, when times are rough that when they throw themselves in the work force and roll up their sleeves to help their employees get things back on track.
When they get involved like that it tends to change the way the workers feel not only about their but about management too. It gives the employees the secure feeling that they can admit that they have flaws, they will make and have made mistakes, that they are not perfect, but that they will learn from them and that life does go on. Also, not everyone will not like them, agree with their ideas, or feel about them the way they feel about themselves, but once again they must be able to recognize that life goes on and they will survive. My favorite quote has always been "What doesn't kill me, will make me stronger (Nietzsche, 1888). Everyone doesn't understand that, but you must be able to look at all of life's situations and look for the good in them; not being able to do this is a major reason for people getting depressed and committing suicide,they begin to feel overwhelmed and don't see a way out. This is why I feel the United States Armed forces have failed so many of its employees/soldiers. You cannot treat all of these individuals the same, they come from different backgrounds, family values, cultures, and set of morals and principals. These are individuals that may have had struggles of trying to be their own person, not being shown love, just trying to find that place where they fit in, or just trying to find their way. When you try to use the army's method where no one is different everyone is the same, they may do some good for a while in that position; but what happens to a soldier when he comes home, gets hurt and can no longer do the job that you so strategically trained him/her for.
Too me, this is sort of a brainwashing system, everything that these people were taught and believed in has been washed away to believe what you want them too. When it's time for them to return to their lives before you entered into it, they wonder why the world has changed; and it's hard for them to believe that it's not just the world, but them as well. In order for a person to survive and end up on their feet, no matter what you need to be flexible(tugade et, al, 2004), and adaptable, just like the article says. Life changes and so do we, more than we would like to admit. I have had to failed marriages, one was a drunker and abusive, and the next one thought he was the smartest person on earth and a womanizer. When I realized that it was me who was going through all this pain, and I was not doing my children any good by putting them through all of that, I ended it. It hurt me to leave the first time, I was young and had never been on my own before; but what you call resilience I call just being plain stubborn. You have to have some sort of confidence in yourself, be able to trust yourself to make good sound decisions, have one or two people in your corner that will help you make rational decisions, love of yourself and above all your trust, love and belief in GOD.
