Some people try their best to build a world where there aren’t too many unpleasant things. When a threat appears they most often say (or think): I cannot stand this, I cannot cope with this....This is awful, a real catastrophe...A torrent of different thoughts stand in the way of them overcoming this low tolerance threshold because of happiness deprivation.
Often, in order to avoid a high level of feeling uncomfortable, they withdraw, postpone or avoid tasks by shifting responsibilities to others while waiting for better (ideal??) circumstances to materialise so they can carry out something ’in peace’.
In this way they are building a strong shield that separates them from the real world.
People who know how to fight unpleasant things in their lives find the strength for occasional efforts. Also, they are able to accept an occasional failing as a part of life.
Resistence to frustration is closely connected with a skill of making realistic, logical and useful demands and expectations. These demands are from oneself, other people and circumstances in life.
Achieving a good level of self-discipline or perserverance and good organisation in order to complete a task or a job that one has started, is a complex and demanding procedure. If you need professional help you can come to our couselling surgery.
