make the best of
deal positively with a bad situation
To make the best of a bad situation is to deal with it as positively as possible.
Hear it in real life
Was the delayed flight a disaster?
Not really. We made the best of it and had dinner at the airport.
The weather was awful, but we made the best of it and explored the town.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: make the best from it
Say: make the best of it
Use the fixed preposition 'of,' not 'from.'
