Finding Hope in Difficulty
4:52:23 2024-07-16 657

Life’s difficulties, as the results of from this U.Texas-led research team’s study shows, can help shape your identity as you think back on both your accomplishments and your failures. The question is not whether you overcome the challenge, but whether you let it penetrate into your sense of self-worth. The difficulty mindset scales provide clear messages about ways to think about those seemingly insurmountable challenges that pop up all the time in daily life.

The 4 items on the difficulty-as-improvement mindset can become phrases you say to yourself the next time things seem hopeless. These phrases can also help you re-interpret the past experiences in which you were forced to stretch yourself beyond what you thought was your limit.

Indeed, in the first of their 15 studies, the authors literally “crawled” the 630 billion English words on the Internet to develop vectors of common ways that people spoke about difficulties. The language of difficulty, then, is as common a feature of everyday life as are difficulties themselves. You can’t avoid them. The question is how you will interpret those you will face and think about those that are now behind you.

To sum up, you may not live in a culture whose blueprint regards difficulty as providing a path to fulfillment, but you can pave your own way by readjusting your mindset.
