When I first tried to play the mandolin, I thought it would be impossible to spread my fingers across 6 frets, no matter how much time and effort I invested. Thankfully, I learned from watching David Benedict on YouTube that the proper way to hold your hand and fingers is at a 45 degree angle to the neck, which did the trick. I can easily play a full G chord now, made possible by maintaining a 45 degree position when playing those more challenging chords.
