Stop ruminating

“New solutions and fresh ways of seeing a problem do not typically come from worrying, especially chronic worry. Instead of coming up with solutions to these potential problems, worriers typically simply ruminate on the danger itself, immersing themselves in a low-key way in the dread associated with it while staying in the same rut of thought.” Daniel Goleman: Emotional Intelligence

Stop thinking about yourself

“Of all the things people think about during the day, the one topic of thought related to the worst moods is the self. The reason for this seems to be that generally when a person thinks about him- or herself, the first and often the only thoughts that appear in consciousness have to do with things that are going wrong – for instance, about getting old, fat, or losing one’s hair, or feeling that one is not successful in some aspect of life.” Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi: The Evolving Self: A Psychology for the New Millenium

When you put the pieces back together make the vessel stronger

“The work of healing is like finding, sorting, and putting together the pieces of an ancient pot. The work is often tedious, and some of the slivers may be sharp and dangerous. The result, if you are patient, is a beautiful object, elegant in form and function, and elegant in the tales it tells of its creation. If put together carefully, it will also be watertight and can be filled up with good things.” Richard A. Moskovitz: Lost in the Mirror

Stop doing what isn’t working and try something new

“An absence of overriding personal ambition together with shrewd common sense are among the essential components of wisdom... [There are two common] characteristics of folly: it often does not spring from a great design, and its consequences are frequently a surprise. The folly lies in persisting thereafter.” Barbara Tuchman: The March of Folly

Make the most of midlife crisis

“Perhaps middle age is, or should be, a period of shedding shells; the shell of ambition, the shell of material accumulations and possessions, the shell of the ego... Perhaps one can at last in middle age, if not earlier, be completely oneself. And what a liberation that would be!” Anne Morrow Lindbergh: Gift from the Sea

Change your questions

“A world of questions is a world of possibility. Questions open our minds, connect us to each other, and shake outmoded paradigms. Our orientation should shift from one of answers and opinions to one of questions and curiosity. We would see quick judgments, fixed perspectives, and old opinions give way to exploration, discovery, innovation, and cooperation.” Marilee Adams: Change Your Questions Change Your Life

Identify the problem behind the problem

“The fact that you don’t have any money is a result of all your other problems. You have thinking problems, attitude problems, self-esteem problems. You are lazy. You lack discipline. You lack integrity. You don’t take responsibility. You lack goals. Your priorities are out of whack. Your biggest problem is not in your wallet or your bank account. Your biggest problem is between your ears. You will fix your money problems when you fix your other problems.” Larry Winget: You’re Broke Because You Want to Be

In the trials of adversity work on character strength

“It is through character that personal leadership and excellence are exercised; it is character that sets the example and the standards by which you behave… The greatest gift you can give yourself is the practice of good character; the greatest gift you can give to others is a model character. Character inspires and is inspiring.” Gary Ryan Blair: Everything Counts: 52 Remarkable Ways to Inspire Excellence and Drive Results

Go off alone somewhere

“The capacity to be alone is a valuable resource when changes of mental attitude are required… The capacity to be alone is necessary if the brain is to function at its best and the individual to fulfill his highest potential.” Anthony Storr: Solitude

Practice a healthy humility

“To understand man’s significance, I saw, you must first accept his insignificance. Only then could you focus him into importance against this stupendous, unshruggable background [of the Grand Canyon]. And now, accepting this vision utterly, accepting it without fear and with joy, I had, for the time being at least, found all I needed.” Collin Fletcher: The Man Who Walked Through Time

There’s no such thing as false hope

“The one thing that usually persists through all these stages [of dying] is hope.” Elisabeth Kubler-Ross: On Death and Dying

Grieve – then move on

“If we hesitate to swallow the bitter losses time inevitably brings us, we cannot enter fully into our humanity. Depression, boredom, neurosis, melancholia are all in differing degrees the refusal to accept loss, to mourn, and to begin again.” Sam Keen: Inward Bound
