Pandemic, inflation, wars, environmental disasters: looking at the news can be devastating and paralyze any form of initiative. It lies in everyone Crisis also a chance. How do you become resilient?
Everyone knows the situation when the dung heap literally piles up right next to the beautiful view in their life: Everyone experiences big and small crises again and again. It can be as tragic as the loss of a loved one People, a divorce or war. But it can also be something very mundane, like the fact that you've lost your job or yourself Money have to borrow. However, a crisis is a time of uncertainty and loss that feels scary and overwhelming.
The rubbish can also lie there for a while, sometimes there are more important things to do, sometimes you have to process the blows of fate emotionally. But it is difficult when you think you can't really do anything or when your own situation is not really serious - many people feel the price increase, but don't have to go hungry because of it, for example. Then we take part in the crisis situation of others, feel but at the same time doomed us to inactivity. But that Problem then stands over us like a sultry summer thunderstorm that refuses to rain down.
What is initially a thoroughly positive, human trait becomes an oppressive burden due to a news situation that seems to give little reason for optimism. Because even though it's important that we don't die Eyes Closing ourselves to the problems around us and actively trying to solve them, everyone eventually reaches the point where they become overwhelmed. This is all the more true when multiple crises, i.e. more than one serious problem, seem to be rushing in on us. And then negative thinking can have a very negative impact on our lives. It can keep you in a rut, trigger depression, make you less productive, and even cause you to make poorer decisions.
You have to realize that this negative thinking leads to nothing. Worrying does not help to solve problems, nor does pessimism protect you from future catastrophes because you cannot foresee all of life's imponderables. After all, a crisis is something unexpected or caused by unexpected events circumstances entry. These circumstances are often outside of Control of a person, or they may be the result of their own actions. Either way, you can't have a crisis to plan and often do not change.
What you can change, however, is the way you react to it. By seeing the crisis as an opportunity and becoming resilient. In this context, the South Tyrolean farmer Matthias Messner impressed me. His Rielinger Hof, which was first mentioned in a document at the beginning of the 13th century, is located at 750 meters above sea level on the Rittner high plateau. On the one hand, the location in the middle of a beautiful landscape with a fantastic view is fantastic, on the other hand: you really have to want to work the steep vines and raise chickens and pigs up here.
Not only the surroundings, but also the history gives an idea of how much work is in the courtyard: After the courtyard was abandoned before World War II, at the time of the option, it stood empty, then was looted during the war and damaged so badly that that there was danger of collapsing - the front door was little more than a small hole - bought in 2 Family Messner ran the farm and is now the third generation to manage it.
Matthias Messner always has his own Head and the special location of his farm cleverly used not only to grow organic wine, but also to make wine himself and sell it from the farm - in addition to running his own bar and several holiday apartments. On the other hand, he left the farmers' cooperative because it would enable a higher quality of wine. Organic - for him that has long been a fundamental attitude that can be transferred to different areas of life.
For example, you have to stop, squeezing everything out of the soil with chemical means, because that would make it unusable in the long term. In this context, the price stability of ecological products is remarkable, for example during inflation. And that is exactly what Messner shows that in the change, which every crisis actually is, there is also an opportunity to rethink the path you have taken and to do things better.
It may be that the beautiful landscape promotes optimism or the physically demanding work on the farm leaves little time for negative and exciting thinking ideas promoted like those Marketing-Idea of immortalizing the climatic curve of the harvest year artistically on the wine label, as a kind of symbol of the challenges to which the winegrower is exposed by nature and which he cannot change. Messner summed it up very dryly: "If the weather doesn't play along, it's just stupid!" What can we learn from this attitude to life in order to become more resilient ourselves?
One thing is certain: not a few people fall into a certain automatism of negative thinking in the face of crisis-ridden news and unpleasant events. That happens too fastwhen something doesn't go the way you want it to. Even Messner admits that it was good to have made the switch to organic farming in a year when weather conditions were excellent. That did him a lot recognition introduced and him Courage given to continue when the climate thwarted him a few years later on account made.
Getting up again in the event of setbacks, the strength optimistic staying and still going on is what characterizes resilient people. For Messner, these setbacks were more like one Motivationto search for new, better ways.
On the other hand, it becomes difficult when the automatic reaction becomes permanent, becomes a process that you cannot control yourself. For many people, this creates an ever-growing problem: you increase further and further into negative thinking until they are literally caught in a mental catastrophe spiral. The consequence is permanent Anxiety, which contributes to perceiving the environment only as threatening.
But what can you do about it? In most cases, the situation itself cannot be changed at all. What is decisive, however, is how we deal with the crisis and the change.
