Surviving a situation can be easier than we think. Of course, we are not referring to the survival of major catastrophes and disasters, which we have no control over. However, during our life we must face battles that can be great challenges.
In "from Deep Survival" by Laurence Gonzales we learn that each person can face a different battle that can threaten survival. Illness, divorce, unemployment, inadequate family relationships, debts, among other situations can be very threatening. However, many people went through them and survived and these people, according to the author of the article, had the same attitudes.
When reading the article, we realized that all these attitudes are related to a good mental balance, calm and the ability to perceive that there is a difficult situation happening. This allows individuals to analyze their problems, reason and manage to find ways to overcome them. This also allows the individual to understand what caused these problems and not become victimized, on the contrary, assume their mistakes and resolve them.
Therefore, we can affirm that the articles throw us a reality that we often fail to recognize, the ability to survive and overcome problems, is within us, in our psychological stability, in our calm and in our ability to ration efficiently.
