When something negative or unexpected happens to you, immediately seize the moment as an opportunity to demonstrate calmness and self-control.
Make it a GAME.
Instead of allowing yourself to feel negative, deliberately force yourself to substitute something positive.
Here is an affirmation that can be very helpful to you.
Repeat it over and over until it becomes automatic, in almost every situation. When something goes wrong, immediately catch yourself by saying,
“Every situation is a positive situation if viewed as an opportunity for growth and self-mastery”.
Whatever it is, take a deep breath, relax, smile and say,
“Every situation is a positive situation if viewed as an opportunity for growth and self-mastery”.
Then look within the situation for something that you can learn that will help you grow and develop greater self-mastery.
This is a simple “mind game” that will enable you to stay relaxed and in control of your emotions. It will work for you, just give it a try.
I wish it came easy to me... Self control I mean. I have fought to have that for a while now. Gladly I am a work in progress.
