There are two ways to face the future. One way is
with apprehension; the other is with anticipation. -Jim Rohn

Drag
your thoughts away from your troubles - by the ears, by the heels, or any other way, so you manage it, it's the healthiest
thing a body can do.
-Mark Twain
When you feel depressed, your brain sends signals to
your facial muscles, telling them that you’re sad; the face responds by adopting an unhappy expression, in turn signaling
the brain that you’re in a miserable mood. Consciously choosing to change your facial expression so it doesn’t
reflect your negative emotions is one way to change the message to the brain, which will then respond by changing your mood.
Never bear more than one trouble at a time. Some people bear three kinds - all they have had, all they have now,
and all they expect to have. -Edward Everett Hale
He who fears he will suffer, already suffers because of his fears.
-Montaigne
Fear is that little dark room where negatives are developed. -Michael Pritchard
Do not anticipate trouble, or worry about what may
never happen. Keep in the sunlight. -Ben Franklin
