I'm so grateful for learning lessons because now that I'm seeking Christ for help, well life is just much easier. I used to try so hard to fix everything in my life: health, relationships, work, money, etc, and would constantly get frustrated because I would end up dissappointing myself. It was a constant cycle of dissappointment, with very little or short-lived reward.
Nowadays, when I am really struggling with an issue, I do one thing first: pray. I pray about it and ask for guidance. Now that doesn't mean that it's done and solved, and I just carry on with my happy self again, no! It just means that I realize that I am not in control and that God (or whatever you call your Higher Power) is guiding me and protecting me at all times - AT ALL TIMES. This is important to remember because there are just times when you feel like everything is way off and way out of whack, and if you don't have faith in your HP, than you'll feel really anxious and worried. I still worry and always think ahead about all the what if's but it's so much better now that I know in my heart and soul that ultimately my HP, God, is watching over me and everything will be okay... better than ok, in fact it will all be amazing.
