Abstract

The COVID-19 outbreak, economic crisis and social problems in late 2019 or so-called the "new normal" period has dramatically resulted in ways of living and quality of life for Thai people in various aspects taking for example, health problem, studies, work, lifestyle, family relations, community relations, incomes shortage and environment concern. Therefore, we urgently need to seriously figure out how to cope with those crisis as well as searching for appropriate coping behaviors to handle them.
This academic article aims to review literatures and compile self-development techniques to cope with the crisis based on positive psychology principles. The techniques focus on self-understanding, self -efficacy, self- understanding and mind-setting. Adaptation and positive thinking to live up with the fatal crisis is very crucial in order to counter with them together with lifting up your healthier mind.
