Whenever I make a mistake or am having a rough day, there are some simple phrases I repeat to myself to help keep me going.
- One day at a time. This is especially helpful if you’re feeling overwhelmed or stressed. Just focus on one day at a time, and chances are things will get better.
- This too shall pass. Some people say “Time heals all wounds”. I don’t think that’s the case, but time does have the ability to dull painful memories.
- Everything happens for a reason. If you believe this, it is far easier to accept things when they don’t go your way.
- Forgive yourself. This is a new one I’ve adopted during COVID
I hope these sayings help you too. Have a happy week.
I agree. Sometimes you just have to focus on the big picture and realize that tomorrow will bring something different. As another one of my friends said, sometimes when the road ahead looks tonight, you have to just put one foot in front of the other and before you know it, you’ve crossed to the other side. I’ve found if you have a friend that walks with you, life is a whole lot better. ❤️
Thanks for always being the person walking by my side, Leslie!
