Keeping things in perspective
Life involves struggle. For most people reading this blog, it's far less of a struggle than for the majority of the people on this planet. However, we all have days when life seems particularly difficult.
Here's a simple checklist to help put things in perspective.
- Stop what you're doing.
- If possible, go outside.
- Fill your lungs with air. Slowly breathe out. Repeat.
- Consciously relax your shoulders and neck.
- Assess your situation rationally.
- Focus on the good things in your life.
Of course, this won't make the bad things go away. But it does help to 're-centre' you for the tasks ahead.
