\n10 Simple Steps: How to Survive a Tough Day<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Keep Going!<\/strong>
\nIf you\u2019re going through Hell, keep going. – Winston Churchill<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 Let Go of Your Worries!<\/strong>
\nDon’t let your mind bully your body into believing it must carry the burden of its worries. – Astrid Alauda<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0 Stop Resisting!<\/strong>
\nPain is a relatively objective, physical phenomenon; suffering is our psychological resistance to what happens. Events may create physical pain, but they do not in themselves create suffering. Resistance creates suffering. Stress happens when your mind resists what is… The only problem in your life is your mind’s resistance to life as it unfolds. – Dan Millman<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 Use Your Angry for Something Positive!<\/strong>
\nIn times of great stress or adversity, it’s always best to keep busy, to plow your anger and your energy into something positive. – Lee Iacoca<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 Watch and Choose Your Thoughts Wisely!<\/strong>
\nThe greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another. – William James<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0 Breathe!<\/strong>
\nStress is basically a disconnection from the earth, a forgetting of the breath. Stress is an ignorant state. It believes that everything is an emergency. Nothing is that important. Just lie down. – Natalie Goldberg<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0 Stand Up!<\/strong>
\nFall seven times, stand up eight. \u2013 Japanese proverb<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0 Hang In and Hang On!<\/strong>
\nWhen you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot in it, and hang on. – Thomas Jefferson<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0 Sing Your Song! <\/strong>
\nA bird doesn’t sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song<\/strong>. – Maya Angelou<\/p>\n

10. Live NOW!<\/strong>
\nYou don’t get to choose how you’re going to die. Or when. But you can decide how you’re going to live now. – Joan Baez<\/p>\n
