What is your line during hard times?

Strange question

Although, if something is bothering me, then I always sing that song in my head:

"everybody knows about the bird. Bird, bird, bird, word is the word" From family guy.

Always makes me laugh and put things into perspective.

Seriously though, happiness is just a state of mind - Your can create it in seconds, no matter what the circumstances!

I say to myself that this means that an opportunity will present itself soon
so I must prepare. Then I pretend that I'm already grateful for everything
I have and for everything that I am. The reason why I pretend is that you
want to feel good and pretending is one of the effective ways for me to
just "feel good."

According to Natalie Ledwell of Mind Movies, Lee Brower, Jack Canfield,
Hale Dwoskin and many other LoA gurus, feeling good a.k.a. being grateful
is what really kicks off and starts the Law of Attraction to bring the things
you want in your life into your present reality.

But I now, I'm currently training myself to just feel good for no reason at
all. That's because being unatttached to any outcome is one of the ultimate
state you should be in when achieving your goals according to Jake of
Stop Giving A F**k.

Love this stuff.

1. I think of all of the success books I read - Main trait of successful people - The ability to withstand massive amounts of discomfort
2. I immediately go into a 10 minute gratitude immersion session - Reciting everything that is awesome in my life
3. 4 minutes of reciting accomplishments
4. A fast paced (usually techno or the song "cannable" by Kesha) song follows
5. Lastly, I take time and try to enjoy the fact that I have emotions, and that they tell me when I need to upgrade my mind or my strategy

Great thread.

"If you want to grow, be prepared to experience the hardships of life.

BUT please do bear in mind that They are Temporary.

Rewards are coming soon.

There is always light at the end of the proverbial tunnel,

Sunshine after the Rain and;

Gain after the Pain."

These are the principles that works well for me.

I always pray and ask for some guidance.

I like you, your too optimistic, mine is "never say die", means what ever happens, difficulties, trials you are still breath and keep moving.

I think back to all the other times I have face hardship. And I know that just like in the past I will grow as a person and become better from this experience

I pray...thank the Father

"Such is life," "you'll have that," and "I'll get over it" work for me.

Life's tough, whether by design or by accident. Obstacles exist and challenges occur.

If we're still breathing, then we've still got a chance to grow.

"F*ck it, Dude, Let's go bowling"

Hard times is just a trial an important part of our life that will mold us as a better person and become mature.

"This too shall pass"...according to me it is the best line cuz nothing is permanent here;

I don't usually have a line.

I might talk to someone who knows what it's like. I also like to use EFT (eftuniverse.com) and Sedona method to get past the emotional baggage.

And then there's meditation. Sweet meditation!

"Pay Attention and Breathe." That worked for me on many occasions. Also asking for help from a higher plane.

Wow,

thank you all very much for the feedback. I am loving it. Gold nuggets each one of them.

I love the line from the old man who fought of the nazis will words and willpower...

Humm, I do not have a line. I have broken down a few times. Sometimes I just chill out, stop doing what is bothering me, go out of town, read my favorite book and watch a funny movies, cry.. in eventual it give me energy to start again.

I can do it, that is the line give me inspiration as the tough time occur. And of course I don't forgot to ask guidance from the Almighty.

Yeah. I heard it on a Mack 10 song "Just roll with the punches and keep it pimpin" thats how I live my life/

I can do it, God is with me always.

"Everything happens for a reason"

I remind myself of happier times and candid moments of my life. That will instantly make me feel good and all fears or sadness disappear. I can talk to my family and receive the needed support.

And if i am living the toughest times then yes, I seek the reason and what i can learn from the situation to avoid in the future.

and hugs really help) from family too). my prescription is 10 hugs a day

This too shall pass . . .

Two things I tell myself.

"I can do this."

"This process, this now...this is what life is all about."

There's always someone who broke through an even more difficult situation. And if they were able to do it, I can too.

You see, perspective is everything

The first thing is i complaint to GOD - Oh god not again and why me always ..

Then i think and talk to myself - that when good days are not there anymore and i am facing hardships now .. so these days too would pass by and everything will be fine again

I avoid all the problems and than start my work with more handwork and pray is must as well

"This too shall pass."

"There's always a light at the end of the tunnel"

And then, I go find something to eat. xD

I take a step back.. analyse the situation and come up with solutions..

I just remember that whatever it is that's kicked me while I'm down isn't permanent.

My dad always told me as a kid that there are no problems...only solutions.

So, once I catch my breath, I look at everything that's going on, and find a way to fix it. There's always a way...

I grew up as a poor person so whenever life throws curve balls at me, i just remember where i am coming from and how much my grandparents and mother sacrificed so i can be where i am today and i just pick myself up, dust myself off and just say "the race is not for the swift but who can endure". I just picture myself living comfortable one day and that is motivation for me. Employ the two p's-Perseverance, Persistence.

Stop complaining, harden the f up!

You can try afformations when you are faced with a tough situation. Afformations are affirmations which are worded in the form of questions. When you repeat an affirmation, you will face resistance from your mind because you know that it is not true.

However, if you reword it as a question, then your mind habitually starts seeking answers to that question. Hence you shift the focus of your mind from negative to positive without meeting the internal resistance as in the case of affirmations.

Here is an example - "I can handle any situation with ease".

This is an affirmation. When you repeat that you mind is going to say, "Really? You don't look at ease right now?". Your brain is going to laugh at these affirmations.

However, if you make it as a question - "Why can I handle any situation with complete ease and poise?"

Try asking that question to yourself a few times right now and see the difference in how you feel.

If you want to know more about afformations, just Google it or else go to the site iafform.com (I am not related to this site in any way, just wanted to share something nice with you folks).

"You've made it this far and your going to give up now!"

I think that the hard times are just a way of life telling you it's time to change. Something's not right, you have to make it right.
I also think about the movies, specially the parts where everything is going wrong and things suddenly work out, cause they do.
I remind myself that there is no point in bringing yourself down, and only you have the power to lift yourself up.
Remember that you must learn something out of these hard times and there's no situation in life that pointless or that you can make something out of those.

I'll leave you with a quote:

the night is darkest just before the dawn.

I remember the happy times and moments of my life free. I immediately make you feel good and go all the fears or sadness. "I can talk to my family and receive the necessary support.
