I appreciate your solid vow. I would like very much to hear details of how you will do this today and then if possible, what you did in the challenging moments. I know that attitude is everything, so help me out. How do you do it?
Parts of the day were indeed challenging. I looked at the circumstance and my emotional reaction to it. If it wasn't a positive reaction I asked myself how important it was to me to be angry or upset and did it help me in any way to be angry or upset. Once you take that step back and look at the situation and your emotions/reactions in a more detached way it is easier to choose to temper or change your emotion. Don't get me wrong, sometimes anger is the right emotion, but this way you'll know when it is or isn't the right one at the moment. Also, I talked to a friend on the phone who really needed me to be upbeat for her because she was having a bad day, so that helped me to be positive. Then, I chose to do something else when what I was working on wasn't exactly working. Today when I was telling others how yesterday went I was able to put a funny spin on it and it became an amusing anecdote. All in all it was a great day!
