gathering strength comes in many forms but the most basic and honest form is to believe in your self, and have faith that you can do it.

My inner strength comes from my desire to do well for my family. Whenever I feel down, I'll think about my family. I'll think about my parents, grandmother, brother and relatives. They are very concerned about me. If I allow myself to be crushed, they will be very sad too. I do not want to see them sad so I have to be strong and happy.

i just follow some rules that we normally follow in martial arts (in Jeet Kune Do) i just empty my mind and try to become like a robot for that few days not thinking much about the problem but working continuously to solve it.

I used to worry about my problems and i had the tendency to keep at a problem until I found a solution but a few years back I renewed my relationship with the Lord and one of the things I learned to do was to offer to him all my probles and worries and he has not let me down since then. I can personally say that as long as you believe and have faith in the one above and raise to him whatever problems you have, that you will have peace of mind, lesser tension and the best solution as the Lord sees it. So where do i get inner strength and power to stand up to all the problems of life? From prayer and faith in the Lord above. Try it. He is just waiting for you to ask.

I always motivate myself whenever I am facing lots of trials in my life. sometimes I'll cry while I am praying. I always seek God for guidance and strength to move on. and of course, my dad, my boyfriend, and my friends gave strength to me when I am down. they encourage me not to give up, and they even made me laugh. they play an important part into my life. and so I treasured them so much.

there are problems that i don't lose sleep over and there are some that may cost me some sleep. i guess i'm lucky to not have met a problem i couldn't surmount. it's not easy to face problems and think of solutions. especially there are problems on my hands already. i was totally stressed out last year when i was working, studying part time and renovating my new place. there just isn't enough time to do everything. when i feel totally drained, i'll just find a corner and cry my eyes out. after that, i feel good enough to face the challenges again. i guess it really depends on how much you want to resolve the issue. i face every problem with the result in mind. if i really wanted the result badly, i'll do everything i can to resolve the problem. cheers ;p

Hello subha12 Obviously another name of life is problem. If there is no problem in life it is presumed that you are no more in this world. Life is full of adventure, problem, happiness, sorrowfulness but overcoming all these we are living and trying to establish our existence. Like every human being I have experienced so many problems in my life, but I handled it with seriously. Whenever I faced any problem I do not get panic first I assess the situation with cool head and decide what to do and thereafter by taking the name of almighty god I handle situation to come out from the problems. Sometimes I get nervous but thanks to god as by the blessing of gods I overcome all these problems.

Lately what I have done throughout my problems in take a step back and really think about the situation and figure how I can change it myself. I do the things I can do and the things that are not in my control I don't worry about anymore. I tell myself that nobody but me can help me and that nobody but me would do so with passion. I get involved and try to help myself and know that no matter what there will always be a brighter day.

Just pondering over all the nice things I've done, the areas where I've outshone or outscored others, and that helps my confidence and morale boost a bit. I also read good, mind-elevating literature, which also serves a source of strength and confidence to me. Thanks.

hi subha!
whenever i'm faced with a problem, i always tell myself that it will be over soon. that everything will be fine in the end. the future gives me the strength to face the problem. i keep in mind that the future holds something good, that there's something to look forward to. and that in the face of challenges and problems, i should not lose hope because it will pass eventually and it will be solved.
and its funny how and where i got this kind of thinking. i got this "everything will be fine in the end" in an anime i've watched before. i liked that anime a lot. the main character was a laid back kid who believes that everything will be fine in the end as long as he do his best. ever since i watched that, i have started believing in that phrase "everything will be fine in the end".

I think when you have a really big problem it plays on your mind all the time and it stresses you out so much that you end up in no fit state to face or try to do anything to resolve it. I find it greatly helps to turn off my mind for just a little bit and restore my body back to a more relaxed state, by meditating and doing tai chi. Yoga is also really good for this. I usually feel stronger afterwards.

i gather strength from the one i am loving.
The first sight when i saw her i thought she was an angle,and really she is.
she don't konw my name.i found her name on the internet,and made friend with her on the internet.she didn't know i was loving her lol.
for 4 months,i talked to her by ICQ,and sometimes emailed her.she thought i was a normal friend.But i am happy.
When i was ill last week,i just lay on my bed,and thought of her,i feel quite happy.No sad of the pain!
