Unpleasant situations are bound to occur, but the way we react in such times may differ. To some, the best bet is to accept such events, for instance, job dissatisfaction or lack of money, and live with them. But to others, that is not wise enough. Events like that should rather be improved upon, an argument I stand for. Even if a situation looks hopeless, it does not mean I cannot improve it.

On one hand, a school of thought argues that little can be done about some unpleasant situations that hit us. In situations where we are not comfortable with our jobs, they believe that coping with such jobs may be the only solution, particularly when there is a high level of unemployment in the country. In Africa, for instance, high unemployment rates have caused many workers to remain glued to their unfulfilling jobs for several years, since there are not many alternatives available for them.

On the contrary, it is believed that even when we are faced with difficult situations, we should make efforts to improve them. Unpleasant situations are bound to arise, for instance, lack of money to complete projects and so on. In such instances, doing nothing and hoping for luck to shine on us will not change such situations, but would worsen matters.

In my opinion, individuals affected should seek solutions. The ability to find solutions would equip such persons to handle similar experiences in the future. One way is when dissatisfied workers seek employment elsewhere or learn skills and venture into entrepreneurship. With that, they learn tenacity, determination, and hard work and even grow their bank accounts till they achieve financial stability.

As I close, the debate lingers about how to handle difficult times when they come. For me, finding a way out is not negotiable. It is important to remember that not solving difficult problems would not take the problems away. So, why refrain from trying to do something when things go wrong?
