Before you do indulge for the day, take some time to reflect on the past week. Perhaps this is something you can do each Sunday. You’ll develop strong resilient muscles and will be able to go about the days in your week on purpose and be able to handle anything that comes up. 
Try not to be bound by worry and fear. This often paralyzes us from taking action on important things that we need to face. Avoiding things, people, circumstances, and events do not change what’s presently happening.
So in order to prepare yourself for the upcoming week ask yourself the following questions about the prior week:
- What went well?
- What could have gone better?
- What was within your control? What wasn’t?
- How can the coming week be even better?
Despite the challenges we face daily, weekly and over the long term, we must continue to work towards bringing our lives into a sense of balance and positivity. Our days go the way we choose to perceive them!
Have a wonderful day!
