"Life is hard." You must have heard people using this as a forlorn adage for a good hundred times and might just have even related to the same. Definitely, life is too hard, but compared to what? Do you have the answer to why life is so hard and complicated and what do you compare it with?
Certain circumstances might be difficult, you fall and fail and also get hurt. But you also have to remember that what hurts you today will make you stronger tomorrow. After all, the most scenic view comes after the most arduous climb.
#1. Overthinking
Lucky people or the one's life you perceive as perfect, leave the reckoning part for others. For some of you, it can be a daily struggle, but you have to make the choice and restrict those ruminating thoughts. Don't continually keep thinking about how life is supposed to be. Instead, think less and start acting more.

#2. Purpose Of Life
A plan can change, chaos can be an interruption but your goal, that must remain. How you get there is your own decision but what you really want from life revolves around the Maslow's hierarchy - psychological, safety, belongingness, esteem and self-actualization needs. Maintain your life's purpose very clear, and work towards it with utmost dedication. See how your life changes!

#3. Imperfections
Have you heard people saying maybe now isn't a good time? Yes. But people also say that there isn't any good time. You make it, you achieve it and right now right here is the time. Accept the imperfections and become perfect in your own way!

#4. Emotional Aspects
Your emotional balance maintains the lows and highs you go through each day. Sometimes it's necessary to feel more and think less. Whereas on other days, you might want to think more and feel less. In those situations of difficulty, conflicts of the mind and heart are often observed. And this is when everything seems impossible and troublesome. But, we should maintain our cool and not contemplate the circumstances in an incorrect manner.

#5. Gratefulness
When you are the one always cribbing about how life is too hard and you aren't able to cope with it, things turn towards the same way. But when you are thankful even for the little good things occurring to you is when life starts to feel like the most precious gift. You should act with modesty and even if the ways are topsy-turvy, try to find those hidden happy corners.

#6. Acceptance
It's all in our hands to choose to trust the happenings and move forward with a positive attitude. And it is also in our hands to let that attitude die and surround with cynical clouds. You need to come in good terms with your life and admit the fact that not everything can be right every time and all that you want depends on your endeavors only. Success and happiness too are the curves that keep going up and down with the efforts you put into achieving them.

#7. Getting along
Not everything is all peachy and full of flowers. Neither are your situations constant nor are the people who are with you now. There is dominance, there are hierarchies, there is selfishness, there are people who want to emerge as superiors by keeping the gun on other's shoulders and there are back stabbers You should know such people exist and not everyone's here to get along with you. Good and bad are just evolved natures of human beings. Understand the fact and don't get trapped in the vicious circle of masked people. We all are hypocrites, no one wants to hear that, but both sides of the brain shell out two different characteristics.
