[AffirmationstoDe-Stress] MORNING COFFEE [4 Attachments]

"Infuse tranquility into your life and relationships."   Accepting responsibility for what you are feeling is hard, especially when what you are feeling is anger. If you leave angry feelings unresolved, they may turn into resentment, envy, jealousy, revenge and, eventually, hatred. These emotions also lie at the root of depression. And, who wants that?   Is there something that repeatedly makes your blood boil, that you end up screaming and yelling about, every time the subject comes up?   Ask yourself if you're overreacting or taking something too seriously. If you still feel your anger is justified, change your response. The relief that comes after screaming and yelling is short lived.   Look for more constructive ways to vent. For starters, try talking your way through your anger, instead of reacting with rage.   Be proactive, take charge, be calm and bask in the light of serenity.   ©Jane Powell       "As you get older, your expectations or trust of others is not as high as it was when one was young, naive and felt unstoppable. That is one of the things that many of us strive to regain most from life as we age, which is this innocence we once had, but due to the scars one accumulates with age, finding your way back to this prized destination is almost impossible, because the compass we used then has been shattered by the weight of life's disappointments."       Hidden in plain view   The most valuable secret of success is that there is no secret. Success comes not from seeking to uncover some exotic hidden formula, but rather through persistently following through on opportunities to create value.   The best shortcut to achievement is to avoid looking for a shortcut. Simply get busy and do the work required, for that is the quickest way to reach the goal you've set.   The most effective way to handle what must be done is to do it. Procrastinating, agonizing, complaining and avoiding will only prolong the task and add greater difficulty to it.   Life is not always easy, and wishing for things to be easier will usually make them more difficult. The time-tested strategy for making life truly easier is to go ahead and work through each challenge as it comes along.   By so doing, you grow stronger, more capable, more effective and more experienced. You put yourself in position to live life on your own terms.   The route to success is no secret, and is in fact hidden in plain view. Use every opportunity to make a difference, and you'll go precisely where you choose to go.   Ralph Marston
