Take a moment to breathe. It sounds ridiculously simple but it works. Mentally hand back any negativity that comes your way. Create a resilience bubble around you. Avoid joining in on the complaining. Bring positive energy into the interaction. Ask the person with the negative energy if they're ok. Take good care of your physical and mental health. If you are eating nutritiously, sleeping generously, switching off regularly and moving your body actively, you're going to immediately find it easier to stick to your moods. You choose to ignore it. You sit down and start focusing on your tasks for the day. You shrug, trying desperately to not get sucked into the complaining and get back to work.

The hardest battle of your life is always going to be with yourself. When faced with an important decision, people often tend to worry about the 'if', and end up overthinking the consequences for oneself and others. Instead, mentally prepare yourself to deal with whatever is to come your way—good or bad. Try letting go of some expectations or simply expect less. Low expectation = limited negative reaction. You need to understand that your emotions are wholly your responsibility—a result of your own cognition and thought process. The moment you begin to have control over them, you will no longer feel perturbed due to others actions. Every time you experience an upsetting emotion, take responsibility for them. Accept that the real power resides in you! Understanding that you are the only person who is in charge of what can and cannot happen to you, can make a world of difference to your well-being.
