Namaskar! The journey of your life will be filled with opposites: ups and downs, success and setbacks. Such is the journey of life. No matter who you are, your life will be filled with twists, turns, and unexpected challenges. Even Lord Krishna and Lord Ram, as humans, had to face unexpected challenges.

So, no matter who you are, you cannot escape life’s challenges. And when you can’t escape something, it’s best to learn how to deal with them. Let me give you three power tips to deal with life’s challenges.

First, focus on solutions. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the magnitude of our problems. We may find ourselves stuck with negativity, fear, or self-doubts. But the key to overcoming challenges lies in shifting our focus from the problem to the solution.

For example, when Pandavas were given a barren land of K PR by King Drash as part of their inheritance, they could have been disheartened. But instead, they chose to focus on creating an unparalleled city, a city of Indra Prast. Soon, Indra Prast became the envy of all of Hastinapur. Do you see the power of focusing on solutions rather than being paralyzed by fear? Take control of situations by working on solutions and charting your way forward.

The next power tip to overcome life’s challenges is learning to stay flexible. Many of us make excellent plans for life, but we forget that life has its own plans for us. Once, King Vikramaditya asked a sage the secret of success. The sage agreed to teach him, but on one condition – the king must spend a day as a commoner, following the sage’s instructions without questioning.

King Vikramaditya accepted the condition. The next day, the sage took him to a marketplace and asked him to sell a bag of rice. As the king tried to sell the rice, he faced numerous challenges and rejections. He had to be flexible, forget his royal status, and keep trying different approaches until he succeeded.

The sage then explained that success often requires adaptability and flexibility. By being open to new experiences, we can overcome obstacles and achieve greatness. Life can throw really big challenges at you, but that doesn’t mean your life is over. Never give up on yourself or your dreams. Just tweak your strategies.

So, the three challenges are: first, focus on solutions; second, learn to stay flexible; and third, tweak your strategies and learn to manage them better. Try to follow all these things, and you’ll be able to manage all types of challenges very easily. Namaskar!
