I've been unable to access the Internet for most of today because of problems with my cable provider.
Boy...did it upset my 'routine'!
Because I'm online all day long...I constantly jump between tasks whenever I need a short break from my writing.
So...I might respond to an email, read an ezine...or just do a little 'investigative' surfing...and then get back to what I was doing.
And...not being able to write in this way started to 'get to me' (well initially, anyway!)
It was when I started to think about getting annoyed that I realized that change CAN be a GOOD thing...if only for one afternoon!
So...I'd write...then I'd go and sit in the garden...or read one of my ebooks...or make a cup of tea.
In the end...it made a NICE change from doing what I normally do!
I always try to look at how I can get the best out of any situation...and this was a good example of something that could have got frustrating if I let it.
What about YOU? Do YOU get let yourself get all 'hot and bothered' by those little things...like your train being late, or being stuck in traffic?
These sort of things you have NO control over whatsoever...so there's no point in letting it 'get to you.
Just accept that things like this WILL happen...and look at how you can use the time that you would otherwise spend getting stressed on something more useful and positive instead!
I know that it isn't always easy...but you WILL feel much better for it, honest!
