Could you please correct it? We often hear such words like "Happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them." Everyone wants to avoid getting into trouble, while the better advice is to learn how to address it. Surrounded by difficulties can be annoying only if you are unable to handle them and happiness is one of the key points. Admittedly, no one can deny that he or she has to face various problems at times, however, it turns out differently. Some have an extreme difficult time in overcoming them, some can even hardly solve them, while others are able to make good use of them, not only handling them successfully but taking a lesson to avoid huger losses. The secret behind it is to be positive. From my daily experience and observation, since you have to face those difficulties whatever, why not be delightful and strong enough to defeat them easily. To sum up, in order to develop the problem-solving ability, we could view the problem as a way to challenge ourselves and imagine the bright tomorrow when we finish it, and the most important, devote full-heartedly into it.

We often hear sentences/maxims* such as "Happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them." Everyone wants to avoid getting into trouble, while the best advice is to learn how to address it. Being surrounded by difficulties can be annoying, but only if you are unable to handle them and happiness is one of the key points.**
Admittedly, no one can deny that he or she has to face various problems at times, however, each situation can turn out differently***. Some have an extremely difficult time in overcoming them, some can even hardly solve them, while others are able to make good use of them; not only handling them successfully, but taking a lesson to avoid larger losses****. The secret behind it is to be positive. From my daily experience and observation, since you have to face those difficulties whatever, why not be delightful***** and strong enough to defeat them easily.
To sum up, in order to develop a problem-solving ability, we could view the problem as a way to challenge ourselves and imagine the bright tomorrow when we overcome it, and the most important, devote ourselves wholeheartedly to it.

Notes:

*can you think of a word to describe this kind of sentence?

**key points to what?

***(... depending on the way one deals with it.)

**** you cannot make "huge" into a comparative, but "huge" is so massive.

*****"delightful" doesn't really fit here, maybe "cheerful"?
