how can you enjoy life in a tough time?

Four things have helped me get through life well. First and foremost, your family and friends. Without them, you will not get the support to get through tough times. They are your bridge and gate when you pass through or fall. Second, writing. Whenever I have things I cannot speak about or they are too morbid to say, I write it all out and then I burn it or throw it away. You can also keep if you want to read over later but sometimes, you might be surprised that that's you so it's not a good idea. Third, music. Listening to nice music or even writing music so you can sing about things is good as it is a creative way to get rid of tough feelings inside. Last, work. Hard to say that my time has been better because I was able to have a job that made time go by quick. In tough times, having a schedule and going out in life makes all the difference. You get to interact with the outside world and not your own. I hope these have helped. Take cares!

always be happy don't think of your problems they will past soon.. give yourself a busy life more with happy feelings..

What a great topic! I learned long ago that if I am going thru a tough time for whatever reason that I need to focus only on today. I can't always plan ahead for problems that might come up or fix the past but I do have control over what I do today to improve things. So my philosophy of life is fairly simple, One Day at a Time and have faith in God as he never gives us more than we can handle. It might seem overwhelming and unbearable but one can get thru it. This too shall pass is another phrase that brings me comfort when the situation is bleak. I am going thru a majorly tough situation right now that I have no control over so I pray, do my best every day, and know that things will get better because they always do if we try hard and give it time!! We can't control what life throws our way, but we can control our attitude. There's another phrase that comes to mind when I am struggling thru something, Fight the good Fight...not sure where the phrase comes from but it helps me stay focused. And I also am one of those people who generally believe that the glass is half full rather than half empty. I also tell myself that I wouldn't appreciate the good times nearly as much if I didn't have the bad times to show me the difference. It would be nice if life always went smoothly but that's just not the way it works! Take care!!

The way I enjoy life in a tough time is eat some delicious food, although I do not feel hungry, I eat food only to divert my attention and reduce stress for the moment.

I think the best way to see the bright side when you're going through a tough time in your life is to magnify things, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, that you appreciate. You make be anxiously awaiting some change in your life that will hopefully make things better during your tough time, but keep in mind that there could be some good things in the mix that might be thrown out with the bad. For example, I'm anxiously awaiting summer when I can quit my job and move to a different city to start anew. I'm looking forward to it so much that I've started counting down the days until we can pack up and get out of here. The one thing that I've had to force myself to do is look around at the things that will permanently change when we move that are advantages. We'll be farther away from family, so I really need to just take a breath and appreciate the time that I do have here with them.

Tough Times!! You know.. that is just a way of looking at situations! And believe me, had tough times not been a part of our lives, we would not have been able to enjoy 'The Good times'. So take it all positively. Whatever comes and happens is the best that can happen and carries a lot of meaning and reason. Just fight well and stay smiling. In case the condition is in your control, work on it to improve it. But if its not in your control ,just relax. Sometimes, its the best to keep moving with the flow.

From personal experience when you hit rock bottom you have to find one thing which is good in your life, even if it is something as simple as having a nice meal, holding off smoking for an extra half an hour or anything just something which you can see as a positive and good no matter how small. Then day by day you have to build upon it until what you see as positives out weight the negatives. Once you have that you will also start to develop a positive mind and start to change more to get you through those tought times.

I am encountering a tough time currently and I have to say it is hard to enjoy life. I just mindset myself to think positively in order to go a distance instead of looking low of myself. I mindset myself that when I go thru challenges it is because God is teaching me somethings and I should learn from it. I always make sure that God is still the center of everything in my life in order to go further with life in full faith that God will always be with me.

everybody have a tough time in their life.so it is important which mentality we face with.many people get depress.including me,but i could not get depress too long,it not only influence my work and also interrupt my life.so i learn to give up this depressed feeling at that moment and still adhere to do what i do.whaterver happend in my life.i alwayse talk to myself.it is small thing and would pass quickly.so i dont give me more time to think about and sad for it.

Well my friend. In my tough times I have patience and absolutely rely on Allah. I pray to him countless of time to show me the right way out. And I get a positive result with peace in mind. I think everyone should resort to God in tough times. Have a nice day!

good discussion in the bad and strong situation many people will fall, may kill himself , make something wrong. if i suffer or stress to any thing, i follow by belive to go direct to my god. because no one can help me unlis my loard, becaus our heart between tow fingers of god may upside down as he want. and in the holy quran ( holy book of us ) god said (who will heared home need somethig ). only allah will hear you , so in cretical setuation of mine i will go to my god and always help me . so i am enjoyd in this way because this tough will be good to me , that to be beside my loard

I myself am in such a period and it's very difficult to give advice. I think one way to face tough times is not to isolate yourself. A good friend is very helpful and entertainment that raises the spirit. I read somewhere that the best three remedies against depression caused by stressful times are dancing, laughing and gossiping! The latter one is very true, talking is good for a good mood.

it's always the tough times that are more challenging, wildlittlefan. and in those time, happiness is quite rare. but when you find one, it's really something. and you should enjoy it to the hilt...

the best thing to enjoy in the worst times of our life is to think about the best and the happiest times we have had in our life ... the others thing which could make us enjoy is to have some time with the friends and have a time with them .. the other thing is to go out on a trip which is the best i think to get out of any worries , however watever we do we can come out of those situations only through our mental fitness and ti have a easy going mindset . watever happens life has to go on .. this principle is the best one

think of the important person of yours. take that person as your inspiration. If you said none, then I would say think of your mother or father. I'm sire they want you to be happy and enjoy your life so take them as inspiration, tell yourself that "I'll do it for my mother, I'll enjoy my life" somthing like that...It helps me all the time whenever the world get so heavy.

Everyday is a tough time as no day will pass that you will not encounter even just minor issue or problem. Maybe that is one of the essence of life: to resolve every problems or issue we encounter and make it through the day everyday of our life. When the problem seems not to have any solution at all I face it. I don't worry my self too much about it because most of the time based from my experience the problem just go away. Sometimes it comes back but it will not be there forever. I just face whatever is the consequence. To take my mind off from my problems I hang out with my friends who have always been there for me. I ask for an advice. I tell them everything just to feel better. The problem also seems to go away for a while whenever I am at home with my 4 months old baby. He always give me hope and makes my day complete. :)

In this period of economic slowdown, everybody has to tighten their belts and it's no longer possible to live a luxurious life like before. Since that's the case, we have to learn to enjoy what we have, instead of wanting to have something we'll enjoy. I think if we uphold this mindset, we should be able to enjoy life in the present, no matter how dire our present situation is.

Report to MyLot daily. Spend less, earn more, stress-free and be happy!!!

frankly speaking i cannot enjoy my life in a tough time because we cannot get time for our self how can we enjoy our life like that.

when i am facing a tough time of my life i will easily get depress and its natural. tough time is not enjoyable its too difficult to face the situation. but to come up with this situation only patience and calm is help out. very less number of people who face the difficulty very easily but lot of people can not handle it. they can depressed easily.
