After keen observation, I deduced that, when we want something to happen but that thing is not happening in that way, we become depressed. Also when we are frightened of something happening and we think too much about it even whether it is going to happen or not, just our overthinking makes us depressed.

In other words, “We are becoming worried about those things which are not in our hands but we want to control them or make them right for us. Ultimately the things which are not in our powers or control we cannot mold them for us, so we become depressed.”

Here, I am mentioning two situations:

The first thing is that the people who cannot see you happy or successful. They influence and make hurdles in your things which make you depressed. That is their actual goal because when you are depressed you will not compete with them and they will continuously do such things which lead you to be mentally disturbed or affect your mental health. For this purpose, they will try bad politics and try to make you alone. But you can stop all of this happening by taking a stand against their brutality and slapping their actions by ignoring them and by making your attitude positive. Then wait for the best and right time to defeat them but for this, you will also have to use the skills of positive politics. So just focus on yourself and wait for the right time. Time always gives a chance to give the right answer. After this, you will find yourself better and come back from depression.

The other thing is that there is a big misconception in our mind that “The things that seem right for us will be right for us in actual”. This world and all of the things in it are very natural. All that happens is a natural process, the things that will naturally be right for you will come to you at the right time. There is a famous quote “You will get your right things but not before the right time and not more than your fate” So be relaxed, no one can steal from you the things which are naturally supposed for you. Just think about this world such as the sun cannot rise before their right time of rising, or even not anyone can die before their right time. So the happening of everything is dependent on the right time.

There are some verses of Quran (A book based on Truths)

Al Quran: Surat Yaseen, Surah: 36, Verse: 40

This means “ It is not allowable for the sun to reach the moon, nor does the night overtake the day, but each, in an orbit, is swimming. (Al Quran: Surat Yaseen, Surah: 36, Verse: 40)”

Al Quran: Surat Aal e Imran, Surah: 03, Verse: 145

This means, “And it is not [possible] for one to die except by permission of Allah at a decree determined. And whoever desires the reward of this world — We will give him thereof; and whoever desires the reward of the Hereafter — We will give him thereof. And we will reward the grateful. (Al Quran: Surat Aal e Imran, Surah: 03, Verse: 145)”

Conclusion:

Do not waste your precious time overthinking about “what will happen in the future”. Except for all of this, You just have to try the right things with positive efforts and spend your remaining time in search of the creator of all of this natural phenomenon upon which this universe is running.
