Question

If we only get one shot at life, than why is it that the majority of the time its stressful and hard?

Answer 1

The beauty of life is finding happiness in the hard times.

Answer 2

Life is what you make of it.  Here's a poem that might help you see things in a better way:  "I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life, God gave me life that I might enjoy all things".

Answer 3

Stress has a purpose when kept to its limits and kept in perspective. Stress gets your mind ready for the trials and tribulations we have to face. Without that stress we wouldn't take anything seriously and would get nothing done. It is unhealthy to let that stress carry when it is no longer needed causing you to worry and fear life. If stress becomes a bad thing then you have a problem best worked out with a therapist. Many people use stress at the right time to accomplish the most out of life. Then they let go when its time to relax and rest.

Answer 4

im gonna give u a long answer short....

basically all humans are trying to gain power and become #1. this also leads to love.. men and women competing for the cute boy or girl. when someone doesnt become the best after trying really hard they may become deppressed or stressed out...for example u and ur friends are trying to go out with a certain somone. u become the winner of that person and ur friends feel bad and deppressed over not winning...this process of competion leads to stressness....

i dont really know what im talking about but i kinda do...its all improv to my knowlegde

this probably didnt help and im sorry if it didnt but i hoped i helped alittle bit....

Answer 5

It's because you don't take the time to smell the roses, stop striving for everything! slow down and relax! material things are not the giver of happiness as we're led to believe! otherwise, all the millionaires would have died laughing long ago! wouldn't they? You ever see a millionaire laughing? no, he's too worried about someone taking over all his shares in the stock market! Have a great day!

Answer 6

Answer 7

Beauty is recognized more when we've seen ' ugly '.  Stress is definitely ugly but contributes to the beautification of life.

Life is not perfect and can't be beautiful at all times.

But when you weigh it out, life always comes out beautiful.

Enjoy!!!

Answer 8

because when you boil it down you gain from these stressful times like lets say rappers from the hood. they lived in a crappy place and now look at em they have what most of us dont have and what we might want like the old saying goes no pain no gain.

Answer 9

Great Bud's a help!

Answer 10

because we live in a world amongst others who also know we only got one shot and every bodys trying to make their one shot count but only so many can actually do it there in lies the stress is the competition to put that shot to good use and be the best at what we are and do by the day we die.

Answer 11

you could never know true beauty without experincing what it blossoms from: stress, pain, blood, tears.

most beautiful things come from something that was not always that way.

Answer 12

Stress, 90% of the time is perception.  You ever notice how some people are soooooo happy and don't have a lot, their moms in the hospital, their wife just left them and they found another wrinkle but they are sooo happy?  And then you met some rich jerk off who has it all and is an unhappy piece of @&!?  It's in their perception of their life...so perceive yours carefully

Answer 13

Everyone of us perceive life differently. We have a lot of "choices" and "options" in our lives and we can see life's beauty if we choose to do so. Well, hardships make us stronger, trials and problems would make us wiser, and every fall in our lives makes us better persons in the future. See? These stresses and hardships are opportunity in disguise to mold us into a person that GOD wants us to be. We have to TRUST Him and live our lives according to His will and we can see life's true HAPPINESS that we are searching . . . Life is how we look at it same as what we make it . . . Enjoy life and live one day at a time! Let us not be too hard on ourselves and be happy always! Life is truly beautiful. I hope I made your day and I hope I shared something that uplifted your spirit. Good Luck! Life is wonderful! God Bless!

Answer 14

the gift of life is beautiful the burden that life creates is something else altogether , what is stressful to you may be nothing in darfur,or more to the point you have to be rich to even think like that about stress that is, i mean do you think an untouchable {obsolete term?] in India thinks 'man I'm just so stressed about my caste today this job is a buzz kill'  i think for most of the worlds population life is a vail of tears being stressed is for westerners like us poor self absorbed Americans

Answer 15

Life is beautiful if seen in a positive perspective, However, if it is seen in the negative thought, it may really be stressful and hard for the majority. What we need is a positive outlook in life. Allow these positive energies to rule you rather than the negatives ones. Life is very interesting if seen in this right perspective. Look out the people around you, you will observe that life passes with the time and they become successful in life. Believing in onelsef is what you need. Perseverance and determination should be set as an attitude. Don't leave yourself in the midst of the vast ocean and allow the waves to lead you. For this will have no goals set but to follow the tides of the ocean. Set a focus life and targets. It is a matter of allowing your talents waiting to be released.

Good luck!

Thanks for asking. Have a great day!

Answer 16

...your expectations and those of others you perceive is more important than YOU...

Answer 17

Because life isn't really all that beautiful. What makes it really beautiful is the mind. When the mind becomes beautiful it may reflect in life. Even through the good times or the bad times..As life reflects on reality of survival and struggle.

Answer 18

Life can only be beautiful if it has contrast. You have to have 'bad' things like stress, danger and punishment to compare against all the 'nice' things which happen and which you then appreciate even more.

If you have so much stress and hardship in your life then maybe "you ain't doin' it right".

Answer 19

Because the individual allows it! If you refuse to accept the stress then there is no stress in your life. It's that simple.
