Tersenyumlah Menghadapi Ujian

Bisakah kita tersenyum manis, tulus dan lebar ketika sedang menghadapi masalah atau problematika hidup? Hmmm, mungkin hanya 2 orang dari 10, atau bahkan hanya 1 orang dari 100. Cara mengelola sebuah masalah adalah kuncinya. Bayangkanlah bahwa sejatinya ujian atau masalah itu adalah batu besar yang di dalam bongkahan batu tersebut terdapat emas dan batu mulia lainnya yang nilainya tinggi, pastilah kita bersemangat untuk menghancurkan batu besar tersebut.
Begitulah kalo mindset yang kita miliki konstruktif dan positive mind, hasilnya hidup begitu mengesankan, menakjubkan penuh warna dan tantangan, setiap hari dengan hasrat dan gairah yang besar untuk selalu menang. Prinsip win-win solution yang senantiasa mendampingi jalan kehidupan, jalan lika-liku sejarah manusia.
Tes atau ujian memiliki salah satu fungsi sebagai tahapan untuk naik level ke tingkatan hidup yang lebih tinggi. Bagi seorang mukmin menerapkan prinsip bahwa setiap musibah terdapat hikmah di baliknya, setiap masalah membawa kunci solusinya masing-masing akan membawa perubahan besar menuju kemenangan sejati, menuju kebahagiaan hakiki, untuk hidup sesudah kehidupan di dunia ini. Janganlah takut dengan sebuah masalah atau ujian, janganlah menghindarinya tetapi hadapilah dengan penuh optimis, tawakal, ada Allah bersama orang-orang yang beriman.
Contohnya ketika pelajar atau mahasiswa menjalani ujian akhir atau ujian skripsi/tesis maka semakin tingkat kesulitannya bertambah, maka tingkat kepuasan ketika mampu menaklukan masalah tersebut semakin besar. Dan biasanya reward yang diperoleh pun semakin besar, seperti metode high risk high income (semakin besar resiko semakin besar yang kita peroleh).
Tersenyumlah menghadapi ujian, hadapilah segala ujian dengan kesabaran, dibalik kesulitan terdapat kemudahan. Setiap tetes keringat yang keluar akan terbayar jika kita pantang menyerah, tahan banting, tegar dan bermental baja maka segala lelah akan sirna ketika kita bisa dalam kondisi sustainable (istiqomah) dalam melakukan amal-amal kebaikan, dalam menyelesaikan kerja-kerja besar hidup kita, dalam meraih segala asa yang kita ingin raih. So, kerja keraslah akhir dari kunci sukses, there is no substitute for hardwork. Okay....
