Over the last two years, I’ve come back to this line from the book Courage is Calling again and again:

“There are six things I can do right now, all of which will help make things better.”

When those moments hit where everything feels like it’s falling apart, and the walls are closing in, I go back to this line. I write down 6 things - however big or small. And I do them. And then I do it again the next day, and the next. A week goes by and you’ve done 42 things. And usually by that point, things start to turn back in your favor. It’s been such a simple way for me to stop worrying about the future - and focus on what I can do right now, today.
