This is something I have spent a lot of time working on. I deal with anxiety, and a lot of life challenges that won't be going away. It took me years to get to a place where I believe I am a mostly positive person, and there are still days I slip... but I work hard... some of the things I do that help are.
Take time for me, a bath, a walk, or even a phone call.
Do something to make someone else smile. Rent a movie for the kids, buy a flower for my mother, make a meal I know someone else will enjoy.
Daily affirmations and recognition (this is one I am just starting up again) its important to give myself credit, and pep talks dont hurt either.
