My Therapist gave me this list to read every day, I thought I would share it.
Thou shalt not worry,
for worry is the most unproductive of all activities.
Thou shalt not be fearful,
for most of the things we fear never come to pass.
Thou shalt not cross bridges before you get to them,
for no one has yet succeeded in accomplishing this.
Thou shalt face each problem as it comes,
you can only handle one at a time anyway.
Thou shalt not take problems to bed with you,
for they make very poor bedfellows.
Thou shalt not borrow other people's problems;
they can take better care of them than you can.
Thou shalt not try to relive yesterday for good or ill it is gone.
Concentrate on what is happening in your life today.
Thou shalt count thy blessings,
never over looking the small ones,
for a lot of small blessing add up to a big one.
Thou shalt be a good listener, for only when you listen
do you hear ideas different from your own.
It is very hard to learn something new when you're talking.
Thou shalt not become bogged down with frustration,
for 90 percent of it is rooted in self pity and will only serve to
interfere with positive action.
