with your son, cut curse words out of your vocabulary, learn how 
to change your oil. Anything. I'm sure you're capable of changing
one thing a day, aren't you?

5) Stress Management at Work

If you're like the majority of working people, then you find work 
to be extremely stressful. The constant demands (some completely 
irrational) are just too much. The expectations come with little 
reward. You might find yourself in a highly negative mind frame 
when you're in the office, and it could even spill over into 
your home life. If this is true for you, then you need to expel
those bad thoughts with a little positive thinking.

We're all guilty of it. Sometimes it seems like we can't even 
control our own thoughts. Our boss or a co-worker has been riding 
us hard, and the demands are way too high to possibly satisfy their 
needs. We get caught in that downward spiral of thought where every 
negative thought sets a foundation for the next. We can't even put 
things that usually cheer us up in the proper perspective. What can 
we do?!

Here is a very simple thing that's worth trying. I'm not saying it's 
easy, but if you can pull it off, it might help you lead a less 
frustrating existence. Make yourself become conscious of these 
patterns, and see them as a problem instead of a justified 
reaction. Although we might want to, we can't blow up at the 
office. It could jeopardize our career. When you realize that 
the pattern is starting to develop, go to your happy place. I 
don't mean a magic garden or a cloud fortress, unless that's
your cup of tea. Think of the most positive things you can. 
You'll find you'll calm down almost instantly. Then do the best
you can to satisfy the situation. Regardless of whether anyone
else notices or not, you can leave the office knowing you did 
the best you could, and you go home with a positive frame of 
mind.
