What strategies do you use to cope with negative feelings?
Since we’re all imperfect living in a world that’s far from perfect, negative feelings and/or bad energy is a part of life.
I believe that, in part, the good of life outweighs the bad plus the bad teaches us not to take the good for granted.
Normally, my cope mechanisms for working through the negative and bad energy are walking, sleeping, eating and praying. Usually one is in a negative balance when I have a bad attitude.
For example, I got a new part time job that I’m on my feet all day with a well known retailer that my hours are closer to full rather than the traditional 20 hours. After hours of being on my feet, my attitude started swaying because of being tired. I started feeling better when my department got ahead of our work. At the end, I had an unplanned break that helped.
Today, I am resting and staying off of my feet for tomorrow and knowing I have mid week days off. Gratitude.
