Does anyone else have a ‘help me get through this ‘ Mantra?

LucyLockett, I am completely sympathetic about being bullied out of a job. Happened to me after years of professional career, one vicious harpie decided to ruin my career, reputation and confidence.
My resolve now is to remember when I walk down a beautiful country lane in the sunshine with my dogs, that piece of nastiness is sitting in an office drowning in paperwork, and my mantra is Enjoy the Day. She can't.
I no longer think about her much, vile woman, she's not worth my head space. Hope you can recover from the ordeal, it took a while for me, but we're worth more. ?

I often remind myself of the advice given by the late, great Humphrey Littleton - "Never lose touch with silly".

I nap most afternoons, it is not giving in to old age in my book. I then stay up until the wee hours drinking wine and listening to heavy metal music and logging on to Gransnet. It works for me. Don't knock it until you have tried it. It can be fun Lol

Worrying/ stressing only ever makes a bad situation worse. Let it be.

As well as 'This too will pass" mentioned by others here, My mum used to say "Nothing lasts forever". Both have got me through hard times

my mantra has always been the same as my granny, if it's for you it won't go by you, i have never been a poor me person, if i can't change it then i just get on with it, i said it to my cancer consultant 2 years ago and he said...god my wee granny used to say that.

I second fevertree and the Bob Marley song, just lovely.

When I nursed my mother at the end, I used to tell myself to “Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood” Henry V and to “gird up my loins”.

Just wait and see what tomorrow brings.....

Like tabbycat, one of my mantras is: "just keep swimmimg....." from the film "Finding Nemo". And like other GNs here, another is: "all things must pass...." (Which is also the title track of a great album by George Harrison, circa 1970.)

A few years ago, dreading the funeral of a close family member, I wrote, in my head, a mantra that I still use now if I am fearful about something in the future:

It will come and it will go,
Whether fast or whether slow,
One thing that I surely know is
It will come and it will go.........

I've always said tomorrow's another day.
I've recently adopted what Captain Sir Tom said, tomorrow will be a good day.

‘Now Is All’ - it helps me focus back on today and stops me worrying about tomorrow.

Nowt worse than a 'Stray P' upsadaisy1! ?

I say Anne Frank!! To myself!!
She did almost 3 years in almost total silence! At least I can go for a walk or phone a friend ?

LondonMzFitz I used to sing that song from Jesus Christ Superstar as a lullaby to my children! Nice memory!

Oops my not me!

I try to channel me inner Gloria Gaynor.....

'I will survive' and/or
'I am what I am'

'This too will pass'

You are the master of your own happiness!

When I moved on from my marriage and started my own
life and business

'everything's goin to be alright,
just take one step a day'

My daughters says they now chant that when the going
gets tough and they sent me a video link of someone
singing that song in a remix, brought tears to my eyes.

I keep thinking of what Captain Sir Tom said- Tomorrow will be a good day

I just keep thinking Che sera, sera, whatever will be will be.
However much we try to predict our future, Che Sera Sera.
Nice little tune too.

Urgh. I feel (and look probably) about 100 at the moment.

I’m going to be/do the opposite , I will let the older me take over, may even result in a few previously unsaid comments popping out ??

Mine is from the Great Marigold Hotel film.

"It will be alright in the end, and if it is not alright, it is clearly not the end..."
