When some goal is being set by us but is not achieved completely or is not achieved as per our satisfaction , frustration creeps in very slowly and believe it its very killing. Under the stroke of frustration, one is surrounded by all kinds of depressive thoughts which are self replicating . Once we are under their spell we started enjoying that state and withdraw ourselves deeper into our depressive shell.
But this is only one side of the coin as there is also a brighter side of frustration. For instance, at times it is frustration which forces us to think about role in society, about our goals and the reasons why they are not achieved. How the 'things' should be ? i.e. it directs our thinking towards the ideal. When the real and the ideal clash, the frustration increases but it also forces to think creatively to resolve this clash.
