Some people believe that it is best to accept a bad situation, such as an unsatisfactory job or shortage of money. Others argue that it is better to try and improve such situations. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion *Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience*.

It is often said that when someone is having a difficult time is because they are facing a challenging

situation

, it could be that they are unsatisfied with their jobs but they cannot quit because they have bills to pay or could be that someone is overweight but do not have time to do exercise or following a diet. Plenty of people will argue that we must face the

situation

and keep going with it, others claim that it is important to try to improve our current circumstances. In

this

essay, we will defend the position of trying to improve taking into consideration the consequences of staying in a negative environment or lifestyle.

First

and foremost, I have known people that stay in a negative moment of their lives because they are afraid of an adjustment or simply think they deserve the position in which they are, even though I do not agree with

this

mindset I have to admit that I understand them. Drawing from my personal experience, I have been in a job that I dislike, I was unhappy and following a really inconvenient schedule,

nonetheless

, I could not vacate because I have to pay for my living expenses. On another hand, there is always the possibility to innovate and to improve yourself and your environment. There are plenty of reasons why getting out of a bad

situation

could improve your mental health and have long-term positive consequences.

For example

, it has been shown that when a person decides to start exercising and losing weight their perception of the world changes and they are more motivated to improve every aspect of their lives.

For example

, I once was overweighted and one day I decided that I will start running for 15 min per day, that little opportunity in my life galvanize me enough to quit my job and start doing what I love the most, music. Personal development was a direct consequence of taking a single action in a bad

situation

that

subsequently

lead to more improvements. It is important to mention that some situations are out of our control and to take actions sometimes impossible, they could be out of our control and, in those cases, the best thing is to try to focus on our well being and let them happen. Losing weight and changing jobs could sound easy in comparison with the decease of a loved one or going through the COVID-19 pandemic unemployed, those are circumstances impossible to switch and we must go through them with the best possible attitude. All things considered, we must always look for an improvement in every position and moment of our lives, but we

also

have to be aware when the

situation

cannot be enhanced because it does not depend on us.
