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 true that every

one

of us can face some types of bad

situations

in our lives, including financial crises, relationships and trauma, etc. Some people prefer to accept and persuade themselves to make compromises,

while

others would like to change negative

situations

into more positive ones. In my opinion, understanding the current

situation

and accepting it should be regarded as a foundation so that we can make some

further

improvements to get into a more pleasant

situation

. On the

one

hand, accepting a bad

situation

is a must.

One

should recognise and acknowledge the existence of

this

unsatisfactory status quo rather than delude oneself and live under illusions and facades. After that, we can review our

situation

in a relatively objective way through introspection, self-reflection and talking to people near and dear to us. Gradually, the cause of the unpleasant

situation

may appear on the horizon, and only by doing

this

, we can come to the next stage and step into a better life.

Besides

, even

situations

that are defined as the worst can provide us with invaluable experiences.

On the other hand

, I do agree that

one

should not lose hope of improving the current

situation

. Before Antonovsky came up with the concept called the sense of coherence, he asked himself, "Why is it that some of us can overcome obstacles and stay healthy,

while

others feel desperate, when we are all meeting the same difficulties?" A key element of his answer was about being hopeful. We should believe that we can use our abilities and the resources around us to cope with the various events that occur in our lives. When we understand

this

logic and keep looking for a way out, the

situation

can be improved. In conclusion, bad

situations

are inevitable, even if we reject them. What we can do is accept the facts, learn from them and never give up searching for refinements.
