"When an eagle soars in the sky, it must break its wings; It is inevitable that the horse will lose its hoof and break its bones. " A person's life can't be smooth sailing, everything goes well, and students will inevitably encounter setbacks in their study and life.

Some people are depressed, discouraged, depressed, lose confidence, give up their efforts, and even feel sorry for themselves and give up on themselves.

Long-term depression even leads to mental illness. After students encounter setbacks, they might as well calmly and rationally analyze the causes and processes leading to setbacks and find better solutions.

Self-compensation, when the initial motivation is frustrated, we can achieve our goals through other channels, or replace the original goals with unnecessary goals and compensate with other successes. If you don't get good grades in an exam, study hard and make up for it later. If you don't do well in Chinese and figures, you will develop in skill science.

Reasonable venting. When you are in a mood, don't bury your pain in your heart, but talk to your parents, teachers or friends actively for understanding or help. You can also write your dissatisfaction or grievances in your diary, or shout at a place where no one is there, so that your mood will gradually calm down.

Transfer and sublimation. After encountering setbacks, we should shift our bad emotions and energy to beneficial activities, look at this matter from a new angle, stabilize our emotions, try to guide our unfinished wishes to a higher direction, turn setbacks into motivation, and be a strong man in life.

Face up and look forward to it. We should cultivate an attitude of facing reality frankly and squarely, and regard setbacks as an inevitable part of life. Heroes have suffered many hardships since ancient times, and setbacks and failures are often the cradle of success. Bacon said: "Miracles often happen when you are unlucky." It is true that setbacks and adversity can test life better.

How do college students face setbacks

A person's life can't always be smooth sailing, and young college students will gradually mature with the accumulation of knowledge and rich experience. In these processes, big and small setbacks will always accompany you. Only by being brave and good at facing the setbacks in life can we fly in setbacks and succeed in struggle.

(A) a correct understanding of setbacks.

Frustration refers to the difficulties people encounter in the process of achieving their goals in life, as well as the tension and emotional reaction caused by their inability to overcome such difficulties. Philosophically, setbacks are both inevitable and accidental. To say it is inevitable means that in the whole process of life, people will always encounter all kinds of setbacks more or less; It is difficult to predict what kind of setbacks everyone may encounter in their life journey and when they will happen. Understanding the characteristics of setbacks makes it easier for us to deal with setbacks in life.

(B) calmly and objectively analyze the causes of setbacks

There are two kinds of setbacks: objective reasons and subjective reasons. The objective reasons are the constraints and obstacles of external conditions, mainly including natural conditions and social conditions. The limitations and obstacles of natural conditions mainly include natural conditions and social conditions. Natural conditions such as natural disasters and man-made disasters; Social conditions, such as social and political turmoil, war, etc. Whether it is natural or man-made disasters or the influence of social changes, it is not optional for individuals. Because people can't choose their family background, social era, and even less their nature. Subjective reasons, that is, the limitations and obstacles of subjective conditions, mainly include the actor's own conditions and cognitive bias. Personal conditions, such as appearance, height, health, economic situation, intelligence, psychological quality and other factors that affect the realization of personal goals. The deviation of understanding is manifested in high goals and high expectations, which makes it difficult for actions to achieve their goals no matter how hard they try.

Young people are in a sensitive period of self-awareness, and the abnormal bipolar fluctuation of thinking mode makes young people move towards simple negation. Therefore, calmly and objectively analyzing the causes of setbacks requires not only mastering the basic weapon of materialist dialectics, but also being good at changing one's bad personality.

(C) actively seek ways to overcome setbacks

The purpose of understanding and analyzing setbacks is to overcome them. To overcome setbacks, we must find suitable methods.

1, Love Life From the perspective of life attitude, love of life reflects a basic belief in life, implying a positive tendency of people towards themselves, society and life, which internally lays a psychological foundation for people to face up to any possibility of setbacks.

2. Exercise willpower. No matter from the perspective of social development or the progress of life, every progress of human society and individuals is based on the sacrifice of things and people. In today's changeable and transforming society, a person must have tenacious will if he wants to succeed. It is difficult for a person with good intelligence but weak willpower to adapt to social progress.

3. Rebuilding the target system When people are in a certain predicament, it is common to lose or reduce rationality. Therefore, we should get out of some cognitive and psychological misunderstandings and rebuild our own target system. This is a sign of a rational and mature person.

4. Be prepared for success or failure. This is a summary of past life experience and an inspiration of dialectics of life. With the "worst" preparation, it is equivalent to enhancing the psychological endurance. Having a strong psychological tolerance for setbacks, coupled with efforts to be "the best", can form a positive attitude towards life, which is conducive to grasping self-study in life practice and reducing blindness; Enhance initiative and reduce passivity.

[Typical case 1] Xiao Kai Ling He is a student union cadre in our school. They often work together. Slowly, I found myself in love with smart and lively Ling. Just when he wanted to confess, he learned that Ling already had a boyfriend. Xiao Kai knew he was hopeless. He thought that was it. It's good to be an ordinary friend, at least we can spend more time together. But things are getting worse. He is always angry with Ling inexplicably, annoying her and always hurting Ling. He knew it was wrong, but he just couldn't help himself.

[Case Analysis] Emotional problems have become the primary psychological problems that plague college students. Because everything is smooth at school and favored at home, many college students have developed their own personality, but they don't know how to get along with others. They are prone to setbacks in interpersonal communication and love, and they are at a loss in the face of setbacks. If Kay can see this as a landscape in her emotional world, this frustration will disappear.

[Typical Case 2] College student Jie said, "I used to be a top student in high school. When I got to college, it seemed that everyone was better than me. I found myself like a dwarf among giants, always worried that I would not do well in the exam. Brothers and sisters also told us to pass the grade, get more certificates and take the postgraduate entrance examination. Now I have nightmares every day when I lie in bed. I can't concentrate in class and I can't stand reading. What should I do if I see that I have not passed the exam? "

[Case analysis] Students who can enter universities are usually the best in middle school. Universities are places where talents come forth in large numbers and elites gather. This contrast makes those students who have poor adaptability to unfamiliar environment unable to find their own position, and will be confused for a while. Generally speaking, this happens to people who usually have good grades, high self-demand and like to pursue perfection. Because at present, in colleges and universities, the test scores are closely related to employment, scholarships, excellent student evaluation, joining the party and so on. If you pay too much attention to these, it will easily lead to nervousness.

[Typical Case 3] College student Yang said, "I'm going to graduate soon, and I'm worried about my job. Usually the grades are not very good, and there is no' relationship'. Being unable to find a better job is a bit cruel to parents who have worked so hard to pay for their college education. Postgraduate entrance examination, no money at home. I have been at a loss since my internship. Seeing that my classmates are busy writing self-recommendation materials and contacting the company, I don't know what to do and I don't want to go to class. If you have nothing to do, just stroll around the street, and you always look insane when you walk on the road. I know that my current state is very bad, but there is really no way. "

[Case study] Nowadays, the employment situation is getting more and more severe. Faced with the heavy pressure from society, family and oneself, I am full of fear about the future and find it difficult to grasp myself. This is a typical symptom of employment phobia. Facing the unknown future, college students who are about to graduate are prone to such anxiety. If Yang Can regards this employment setback as a test for himself, or realizes that "the so-called good job may not be suitable for his strengths and talents". Then this kind of employment frustration will be greatly reduced.

How to face setbacks

In life, everyone will encounter setbacks, and moderate setbacks have certain positive significance, which can help people get rid of inertia and urge people to forge ahead. Frustration is also a challenge and test. British philosopher Bacon said: "Most miracles beyond nature occur in the conquest of adversity." The key problem is how to face setbacks.

People want to be more happy, less painful, more successful and less frustrated all their lives, but fate always seems to play tricks on people and torture them, always giving them more loss, pain and frustration. I remember reading such a story: there was a pupa on the grass, which was found by a child and brought home. A few days later, a small crack appeared on the pupa, and the butterfly inside struggled for a long time, as if its body was stuck. Naive children can't bear to see butterflies struggling in pupae. So, he picked up scissors to cut open the pupa shell and help the butterfly get rid of the pupa. But because the butterfly didn't go through a painful struggle before breaking the pupa, its body was bloated and its wings shriveled, so it couldn't fly at all and soon died. Naturally, the happiness of this butterfly disappeared forever with its death. This little story also illustrates a life truth. To be happy, you must be able to endure pain and frustration. This is a kind of tempering for people, and it is also a necessary process for a person to grow up.

There are many factors that cause setbacks. For example, the goal is set too high, and there is a gap between ability and expectation. In addition, it also includes psychological conflict factors. For example, a college student, who really wants to concentrate on his PhD, is in love; Reading and love are like fish and bear's paw. He wants to have both, but the best thing for him is to choose only one. This is a "two-way conflict". Another example is a pair of men and women in love. After several contacts, they felt that they had talked about everything and there was nothing to talk about. They can only look at me, and I look at you, which is embarrassing, but a person will feel more lonely. This is called "avoidance-avoidance conflict"

When people encounter setbacks, they often feel insecure and difficult to settle down, and their work and life will be affected. Then, when people suffer setbacks, how should they debug? Here are ten ways to try:

First, calm down, calm down, calm down.

Second, enhance self-confidence and courage.

Third, judge the situation and win by circuitous means. The so-called detour victory means that the goal remains the same and the method has changed.

Fourth, make persistent efforts and persevere. When you encounter setbacks, you should go forward bravely. The goal you set remains the same, so redouble your efforts.

Fifth, replace trees with flowers and be flexible. If the original goal that is too high can't be achieved for a while, you can change to a goal that is easier to achieve. This is also an adaptive way.
