Affirmation from old College friend

[likethebeer]

She wrote this one day, I copied it, and thought it might be nice to have around for future thoughts:

It has happened before and it just happened again:
Have been stressing about a meeting for months. What will they say? What will I say? What will happen? Every scenario in my head EXCEPT-
Things will work out nicely and everything will be OK.
WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT OCCURRED.

This leads me to question why I (and others) add this negative, self imposed, soul sucking stress to an otherwise blessed life? I am going to remember this mantra and try to apply it to my next stressful situation: "I am a good person who always tries my best. It should be enough for everyone around me. If not, so what?"

Now, say it with me and repeat when you too are feeling uncertain.

This could change my life...if only I could make myself believe it.
