Frustration seems like such an impotent emotion: you're too spun up to continue effectively, and you're too on edge to just rest and wait. Left unchecked frustration can lead to stupid mistakes and embarrassment. Even more, frustration left unchecked can lead you right to your favorite unhealthy coping behavior. And frustration, in general, is just not a place abundant people tend to hang out. By "abundant people," I mean people who are genuinely enjoying life. Here's the good news. You can make an intention to experience less frustration in your life. You can strategize how to do that and what you will do differently next time you're frustrated. What are you going to do differently? I have some ideas that I share in this episode. Mentions The listener page to join my email list if you're interested. Thanks for your consideration.

Thanks for listening!

Often we think other people are responsible for how we perceive them. Of course, that’s not true since we are the only ones responsible for where we focus and how we interpret whatever data we take in. That’s something we can really use in our favor! It just takes a determination to focus on what can be appreciated and nothing else, which gets easier and easier with practice.

Make it a habit to work some time into your day to focus on how you want to feel with little games like the ones shared in this podcast and find yourself in the flow more often, feeling pretty good more often, and just generally enjoying life more.

Isn’t so much about decision making really concern for what others will think? In this episode, Stevie talks about the freedom that comes with understanding that no one has a better perspective on the choices you are making than you. So going around and taking a poll of what everyone thinks of the possibilities though maybe fun is often mostly a distraction you and your own authority for yourself and your ability to make the best choices for you.
