Nowadays, there is an ongoing debate about how to respond to a bad situation. One portion of
people
argues that accepting is the best way
instead
of trying to do better.
This
essay will explain both of these perspectives and provide my own opinion.
On the one hand, when
people
are exposed to an unpleasant experience they immediately go to the
acceptance
state because it gives them the peace that they need to carry on.
For example
, when an Indonesian elementary student got a bad score, they will say “Never mind, that’s ok” and
then
, she moves on to her other activities.
Moreover
,
according to
the research done by a team at the University of Indonesia in 2020,
acceptance
approaches are proven to reduce stress in a short time. Many grounding techniques
such
as deep breathing, walking on bare feet, etc help the body to process, readjust the emotion, and refocus the brain.
Thus
, as stated before, after acknowledging a bad incident,
people
can recover quickly and be able to continue their day.
On the other hand
,
people
believe they should keep improving their mistakes.
For instance
, when a secretary makes a wrong report and gets scolded, she has to revise the document as the first thing to do. In
this
population, most of them think bad situations should be handled as it is. Meaning as a matter of facts and logic. Dealing with the problem at hand,
then
processing their emotions later. Many labour and office workers tend to choose
this
method

show examples
because it is practical and requires little time.
In my opinion, we should prioritise
acceptance
as the first act. Take an example in my office. Many fellows choose to keep trying or fixing their mistakes without proper pause to respond and the result commonly does not get any better. Not only do they need to redo their work, but
also
their mind keeps hankering for guilt or other negative emotions.
Thus
, avoiding processing your feelings is futile and brings more harm than good.
In conclusion, whether someone believes the first or the second method, its benefit will depend on their own character. Everyone should pick what works for them. Probably, if you are a Feeling-type of person,
then
an
acceptance
way will suit you,
while
the opposite is for a more Thinking-type person.
