The Little Things You Tell Yourself To Get You Through (A/The) Rough Spot
Yesterday Today..Please share even if it seems silly, weird, ordinary, or even painful..it's could be the very thing needed by someone when they are facing a hump, bump, rough patch, or?????
Mine today was: "No, you do not need that crunchy donut, it's not raw or vegan, and you will be so unhappy you gave in to "it" once you've had the last yummy bite" (I can't believe I am telling you this) Be Brave! Thanks

Getting me through today - hitting a raccoon which tore up the front end of my car, for which I now have a $500 deductible at a time that's very tough for me financially, and while I'm in the middle of one of the most stressful times of my life overall:
Grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. That gets me through pretty much every day these days. Can I change what happened? No. Can I change the outcome? No. Can I accept that it is what it is without falling into the Pit of Despair? Yes. Can I look, with a head that isn't overwhelmed with stress and depression, at what I might be able to do to help get through this difficult time? Yes.

"Feelings aren't facts", "This too shall pass" or "You are not tragically unique" or more softly put...you aren't alone or the first one to go this.
But what helps most of all is to pick up the phone and talk to a friend who will be compassionate balanced with a little side of truth and reality.

This is what I say to myself:
"I can stand it." or "Tighten up, you are not going to die from it." or "It's not that bad, get over it." Then I do something to occupy my mind so I won't dwell on it. And it does pass eventually ... or ... something worse comes up and the original gets bumped to the back of the queue. (LOL! joking around) |

I've found that when I'm facing something daunting it helps me to tell myself "You WILL do this!" rather than "You can do this." For some reason, it just gives me more momentum and resolve.

Usually just, "You've survived worse, you still have a sense of humor, everything will be okay, maybe you just need a nap."
Sounds silly, but a nap changes everything. Gives the body a chance to recuperate, stops the stress reaction. |

Something I learned in Weight Watchers, that I'm using for everything-write down exactly what I want, in measureable terms. Then I get my mind behind it, that I can do it.

I pull out a map and say fella where would you like to take pictures. Then I book a flight and book a room at a gay resort. Then I begin to sing I will survive! (lol)

I have two silly ones, but they work. I tell myself: "You're not a speshul snowflake. Snowflakes melt when the heat's on, and you're still here!"
And if that doesn't work, "You can't take your kitties if you go to jail, and there's no bubble baths there either." Sometimes they help. |
