This is and will always be the #1 life skill to develop... The absolute number one life skill you can develop is to learn how to stay in a good mood. Folks, you cannot continue to react to what other people are doing around you. You cannot continue to let people have control over your life because of their mouth. Repeat after me. I am the thermostat, not the thermometer. Let me ask you a question. Do you have a bank card? Do you have an ATM card where you can go to the ATM machine and, you know, put your code in to get money out? Would you give just anybody your ATM code and let them have access to your bank account? Of course you wouldn't. But guess what's just as important as your financial health? Your emotional health. Every time you react to what some clown around you is doing, you're getting a cortisol drip into your system. Cortisol erodes your cardiovascular system. It's what's gonna take you out early. So why are you giving them that type of control over your life? Your money is just as important as your health. Just like you wouldn't give someone your PIN code to your ATM card, don't give them access to your emotions. Learn how to stay in a good mood. You are the thermostat, not the thermometer. Cut it out. Let's get on with life and stay happy and stay in a good mood. You can do this. I know. Cause I can do it too. Bye.
