A Blueprint For Feeling Good

Be Happy  Really, it's a decision. At any moment, in any situation you can decide and you can create comfort for yourself. It comes down to this, what do you want?  Do you want happy, or do you want sad or fear or anger. OK, I can hear some of you, "but how do you stop fear or anger in an instant?  Own it, that's how.  Meaning, you created the fear, the anger, the sadness in the first place. No one did anything to you.
Relax Another decision.  Breathe. Get Present. Get alive in the moment. Get in touch with yourself.
Pay attention  Stay awake, eyes wide open, see what's going on.  Get Wide Awake!

Don't lose sight of the basic things - They really matter....and they work.
Train your brain to send the messages you want.
BE HAPPY     RELAX     PAY ATTENTION

Failure - not! Lesson - yes!

In your day to day life, at work, at home, at school...wherever. 
Think not - "Ah, I failed at this.  I made a huge mistake."  This thinking is not so useful.

Think instead - "Ah, what is my lesson to learn here?  How can I now create value in my life and others' lives, based on this experience?"

Failure = self-blame, lack of self-acceptance
Lesson = ownership, opportunity for new growth
