"THINK HAPPY THOUGHTS AND YOU CAN FLY"

Goldberg wrote,” Stress is an ignorant state; it believes everything is an emergency, nothing  is that important”.

I think we would all agree that this is somewhat of a generalisation, some things are that important. The secret is to allow stress to release every hormone, raise every hair and consume every thought, over events that can threaten life or destroy happiness, but never to allow stress to dictate your thoughts and actions over the irritating, upsetting,  in your face  problems that life throws up every day.

Mark twain said” Drag your thoughts away from your worries by ears, by the heels, or any other way you can manage it”.

 If something you said, a mistake you made, a decision you have taken, is all you can think about, then don’t obsess about it any longer. Use every means at your disposal to put it right and then resolved or not let it go, because worry consumes courage and drains the spirit and if you don’t let go you will never have the strength to see it for what it is, simply a lesson learnt and not a tragic milestone directing the rest of your life.

“The art of living lies less in eliminating our trouble than in growing with them”.    Baruch
