In a Crisis...Win the Battle of the Mind
In the middle of a crisis when everything looks the darkest, the mind begins playing tricks on you. Our ancient mind is attracted to fear and negativity. It is part of the development that keeps us safe and protects us. So in a crisis your mind has a tendency to only see negative and feel fear. Often the mind begins to say something like this... "that this situation is terrible," "there is no way out," "it will never get any better," and "just run and get out of here." Your biggest battle in a crisis is to fight for good thoughts, look for opportunities to grow, and to see there are always solutions.
