life is full of ups and downs.when things go as what we plan it to,for example,good health,happy feeling,get promoted at scheduled time,excellent in position etc.we are confident and full of dreams.
but when things is not so good,we feel depressed.everyone needs some ways to encourage him or her to restart.i often encourage myself by saying to myself that you are a luckdog,good luck will come to you very soon.
different people have different ways to encouarge themselves,what about you?

Yes, I agree with you. Life is definately full of ups and downs. It is easier to be happy when life goes the way we want it to or we are happy with everything that is going on. When life is going the opposite way, it is human nature to feel sad and doubt. In times like this, I listen to music. Music has always helped me. I listen to upbeat music and try to think positively. I also play golf, it takes my mind off things, makes me forget, and relaxes me. After these things, the problem will probably still exist but I am calmer and think to myself, there is nothing I can do and if there is something that I can do to make the situation better I plan and execute it. I also try to be grateful in every situation because it could be worse no? Hopefully, I've given some insight and suggestions that can be helpful! ^_^

I have been discouraged for a very long time now, and it doesn't really show signs of getting any better.
