“By looking at a problem in a different way, it may be possible to reduce discouragement. I have been impressed with the pioneer story told about Zina Young. After experiencing the death of parents, crop failure, and sickness, she was encouraged with a spiritual experience that changed her attitude. While attempting to seek divine help, she heard her mother’s voice: ‘Zina, any sailor can steer on a smooth sea, when rocks appear, sail around them.’ A prayer came quickly: ‘O Father in heaven, help me to be a good sailor, that my heart shall not break on the rocks of grief.’ It is often difficult to change circumstances, but a positive attitude can help lift discouragement.” - Val R. Christensen, Second Quorum of the Seventy “Overcoming Discouragement,” October 1998 General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
