From the author: Every situation that is out of a person’s comfort zone is stressful. Long-term stress is a crisis. The body needs help to overcome and adapt to a new situation. How to take care of yourself in a crisis situation The Parable of Two Frogs This parable tells about two frogs who fell into a pot of sour cream. They did not want to drown! Then they began to flounder and swim. However, this clay jug had very high, slippery walls. And the frogs can’t get out of there. One frog thought: “I can’t get out of here anyway. Well, I’ll flounder in vain. It’s just a waste of time to fray my nerves. It’s better that I drown right away.” She thought so, stopped floundering - and drowned. And the second frog thought: “No, drown I will always have time. But I’d rather flounder some more, swim some more. " He tries, but nothing works. No matter how you swim, you won't get far. The jug is narrow, the walls are slippery - it’s impossible for a frog to get out of the sour cream. She doesn't give up, doesn't get discouraged. “It’s okay,” he thinks, “as long as I have the strength, I’ll flounder. I’m still alive, which means I have to live. And then - what will happen.” And now our brave frog is struggling with his last strength. And now she has begun to lose consciousness. She’s already drowning. She’s already being pulled to the bottom. And she doesn’t give up. Just know, she’s working with her paws... What is it? Our frog feels something solid under her feet, something so strong, like the earth. She looked and saw: there was no sour cream in the jug anymore, but it was sitting on a lump of butter. “What is it? - the frog thinks. “Where did the oil come from here?” She was surprised, and then realized: after all, it was she herself who, with her paws, churned solid butter out of liquid sour cream... The frog jumped out of the jug, rested and jumped... Using this parable as an example, you can see ways of behavior in a difficult situation. One frog, realizing the hopelessness of the situation, resigned himself to fate and drowned. The second one continued to jump until it knocked the sour cream into the butter and jumped out.
