Every one of us has experienced losses—some more extreme than others—but there is often a seed of triumph hidden in those losses. It may be hard to see at first, but it’s there. Try asking yourself: “What is the good in this? What lesson can I take away? How can I share my knowledge with others?” Bring to mind two or three events that may have seemed totally awful up to this point and write down only the good things and/or the benefits gained from each. Looking for the brighter side is a great habit to develop—you’ll become a happier and more compassionate person.
