I am frustrated with life. Everyday is a struggle. Work, money, relationship, one after the other. Sometimes when it gets too much, I lost bearing and just lie down on my bed.
Today I was scolded by my manager for not getting the targeted output. But things were going pretty well the past few days. No positive remarks from him then. Today, he screamed and yelled at me because yesterday output was low. Of course I got fed up and yelled back at him. He asked me to sit in the office and let him run the production. I went in and walk out of the office with my stuff.
Why can't things continue to be ok instead of always something negative happen every few days? If its not work, its relationship, but the contstant irritation is the money problem.

I know how you feel, I have money problems, I have family problems, I have legal problems on top of the mix at the moment. It's hard to get on top of things when it seems that every step you take forward, you end up taking two steps back. The only thing I can suggest is to try and make a change even if it's just a small one. Try to brighten your life in a simple way, take a long bath to try and ease your stress, take a walk to ease your mind. The important thing is to do something to try and change your life for the better.

Life can be harsh sometimes. I can relate to your situation. But look at the bright side of it. Instead of focusing your energy on the bad things, try to count the blessings around you and be thankful. It may be may be your good health, your loving parents, friends or loved ones, or maybe the simple things around you that makes you feel happy or contented. Gratitude comes from within and it emits positive energy around you. A positive mind attracts positive situation, person, things and etc...
Life is a matter of choice, That is why God gave us FREE WILL. Its for us to choose between curse and blessings. Sad thing is, we often choose curse over the blessings. We often overlook all the blessings that God laid around us. Its easier said than done I know, but try. Just try, and you'll start to feel good about yourself:)

Thank you so much for your responses which is full of understanding. Yes we should always look at the bright side but sometimes when we are in pain, its a little hard to focus on the good things. Hearing or reading others' positive feedback do help give us a little push to continue walking in our misery and hopefully we are able to walk out of it. Thanks once again.

I am sorry for the unfortunate event, but life is just that way. Sometimes it runs smoothly and other times everything is a disaster anyhow we decide. I hope you are losing faith in this life and continue to fight. Maybe you have not seen it, but I am sure there is light ahead of you, not everything is dark.

Well, life is like that, full of ups and downs and so is our work specially when about sales. We should always be ready for the inevitable.
Losing our temper specially at our boss is one aspect that is hard to maintain. But whatever happens, we should learn how to tame our temper specially when speaking with the boss. Just take it as a constructive criticism and maybe explain in a calm way why it was like that etc.
At the end of the day, the boss determines who he can promote or demote.

Hi Beautifulkinabalu, Life is what you make of it. If you would have a better attitude about life. What I'm trying to say is be happy that your life is normal. Everyone has ups and downs in there life's. Just smile and relax then move on with your life. Don't let your boss get to you. Everything happens for a reason. Learn from it so you will know what to do next time or what not to do. Good luck in life.

Everybody get their life and we all become happy or sad just by our expectation from it. Don't you wonder some time how much happy you are with compare to those begger who sit in front of railway station ?
I feel myself in too much confortable position when some time I think about them and get much energy to face challenges more positevely..
We human have a very peculier properties to always expect more what we get. So I expect you to be positive and fight you own fight and get happiness from that fight even if you don't win...
Life is not easy dear...it's a fight everyday...
Best of Luck..

Hello beautifulkinabalu!
You know life's daily work stresses out so badly.
We always think of the things that should be done,
achieve, get etc. But there is always a thing that
we always forget to do and is to PRAY. Sometimes we
used to forget God because of our busy life. He gives
us problem for us to remember Him. Remember God helps
those who believes in Him. Everything happens for a reason
and with his guidance I know you can do the things right.
Keep your faith and everything follows. God Bless!.

This is life. Well, think of it this way whenever you encounter such things. At least you are still around to experience all these. They are people who are bed-ridden, who wished to have your kind of life but could not. Respond to your problems positively. You may say it is easier said than done. But give it a deeper thought.
