Căn cứ vào các thông tin sau:
One good piece of advice to remember is that you cannot always control situations or other people. The only thing you can control is your own personal reaction to bad situations. (Một lời khuyên hữu ích phải nhớ là không phải khi nào bạn cũng kiểm soát được tình huống hay người khác. Điều duy nhất bạn có thể kiểm soát là các phản ứng của chính bạn trong hoàn cảnh khó khăn đó.)
In these situations, try to focus on the steps you can take to remedy the situation, instead of how awful the setback is. (Trong các tình huống này, hãy cố gắng tập trung vào các bước bạn có thể làm để vượt qua khó khăn, thay vì để ý khó khăn đó tồi tệ đến mức nào.)
The bottom line is, no matter what the problem is, you are more likely to fix it if you can stay positive and work out a plan. (Điểm mấu chốt là, cho dù khó khăn của bạn là gì đi nữa, bạn đều có thể vượt qua được nếu bạn luôn lạc quan và vạch ra 1 kế hoạch).
While a positive attitude may not be the answer to every problem, it can certainly give you an advantage in surviving most of life’s minor setbacks. (Mặc dù thái độ tích cực không phải là chìa khóa cho mọi vấn đề, nhưng nó chắc chắn sẽ cho bạn cơ hội vượt qua mọi khó khăn nhỏ trong cuộc sống).
Các dẫn chứng điều cho thấy tác giả đang khuyến khích mọi người duy trì thái độ tích cực trong mọi khó khăn.
