The morning is the same as any other yet she feels angry, resentful and a bit sad. Nothing has changed from the night before. There is no one to blame. No one called with bad news. No argument has caused these feelings. She just wakes up upset.

Could these feelings come from bad dreams? Maybe. Residual events from yesterday? Could be. Old traumatic subconscious events? Possibly.

Does it really matter where they came from? What really matters is getting through them so you can feel better and move on.

Uncomfortable feelings, doubts, and lack of confidence creep up on us throughout the day. These negative thoughts and feelings sabotage our efforts to explore our possibilities or to just plain feel better. When we are in a feeling place of neutrality or, better yet, happiness and excitement life offers us peace, clarity and opportunity.

Sounds great! So how do I do that?

By playing what if.

Recognize the negative feelings.
Say to yourself:
What if I could let go of this anger just for a moment and feel peace instead?

Invite in the feeling of peace.

Remind yourself it is just for a moment. Negative feelings have a tendency to creep back in. That is okay. Say it again.

What if I could let go of these feelings of doubt for just a moment and feel calm instead?

Invite in the feeling of calm.

What if I could let these go for more than a moment and feel peace?

We control our thoughts and our thoughts control our feelings. Before you know it this process will only take a moment to replace negative feelings with feelings of calm, excitement and anticipation of great things to come.
