Tip 44: See the silver lining

'In every crisis lies the seed of new opportunities.'

In challenging times like those, I catch myself asking: Why is this happening and what's the purpose of all this? I think, though, that we should be looking forward and not backward and to use this opportunity for personal growth and learning.

Ask yourself:

• What are the biggest fears that this crisis triggers in me?

• How likely is it that those 'worst case scenarios' are actually going to happen?

• What coping mechanisms can I develop for myself?

• How can I use these times to readjust my way of living?

• What is it that truly matter in my life?

• How can I make sure that the rest of my life is truly worthwhile?

• What is it that deeply excites me?

What can be your first little step in midst of this crisis to foster your personal growth?
