*plays Rocky theme loudly*
What kinds of things do you do to psyche yourself up to deal with life's little unpleasantries??????
Do you have an inspirational song that you play aloud or in your head?
Do you give yourself a pep-talk?
How do you get yourself prepared??

I have a little "daily affirmation" that I say out loud every day when I wake up. It's something has never failed to put me in a good frame of mind and helps me to get through some tough times. I've been saying it for probably about 30 years now:
Someday I will see Charlie Brown kick that football.
Someday I will see the Cubs win the World Series.
Someday I will see them find a cure for cystic fibrosis.
Not really any particular music that I listen to for inspiration. It's usually one of those things that I may just happen to hear a song and it really gets me going.
I've found that talking to a friend about pretty much absolutely nothing helps get me in a good frame of mind to deal with life's problems many times. I did that last night actually. I've also found that pets help me deal with things quite a bit. Been spending a lot of time the last couple of weeks with a purring furball in my lap and I've been able to feel a lot better about things each and every time I done that.

First I pray for strength and ability and if that don't work I beg.  I take a deep breath and do what I have to do.

I visualize me being successful, and all the better stuff I'll get to do when the bad task is over.

I tell myself that it is only going to take up just a portion of my hour, week, year, decade, life - depending of course how long the 'whatever' is going to take. I have decided that there isn't anything that I can't handle, do, etc because there is so much more than that 'thing' I have to face, deal with, do.
