A legend from the 14th century tells of the time when the black plague devastated the European continent and annihilated a quarter of the population, that a traveller was walking at night to London. In the darkness he met two strangers with whom he spoke and soon learned that one was Plague and the other Fear. "In the next few days we're going to eliminate some 10,000 people in London," Pest said. Then the traveler asked, "You will carry out the killing, won't you?" "No," I immediately replied, "I will take the life of a thousand or two thousand. Fear will take care of the rest."

Take responsibility: Take the attitude that you can do more than just point fingers and blame yourself for everything you do. You can control the responses to your situation.
Limit your focus: Don't let the problem be the focus of your attention.
Be optimistic: When you believe positively, despite the difficult times you may have, it will give you an opportunity to engage in positive behavior.
Think creatively: See your problem from different perspectives. This will help you be more creative.
Have courage: Having courage does not mean that you are not afraid. It means he's not going to let fear paralyze him.
