Beware of Discouragement

Are you fed up? Feel like giving up? Do you feel that what you have held dear is no longer worthwhile? Whenever you ask yourself some of these questions, you should be on your guard, chances are you are in grave danger of losing what you have gained. Discouragement is man's deadliest enemy. Talented men have become failures because of it. Powerful armies have been defeated by inferior forces because of discouragement. Strong men have been reduced weaklings because of it. Discouragement means losing one's courage.

Yes you are right since when bad things happen to me like not having my printer working, I do fall into a depression which I try to be positive and seek an expert to fix the printer problems.

I don't let discouragement have a place in my life. Joshua 1:9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. (KJV)

I think one can easily discourage someone who has weak personality.

You can have a strong personality and still get discourage or depressed. You constantly working working working and yet you can't see the fruits of your labour is very discouraging

@askme123 when there are issues, better to deal directly with the concerned individuals.

At times, we may consider the fact that life is short and our days are filled with trouble, it is completely unavoidable that we occasionally feel discouraged.. My simple thought is there's always tomorrow, so never lose hope,.
