"In response to a disappointment, difficulty or failure, some people allow themselves to become gradually submerged until they actually become ill. They could avoid this, but only if they reacted immediately. Instead of reacting, however, most people wait for things to ‘pass on their own.’ It is true that in most cases life naturally regains the upper hand, but, in certain more difficult situations, if you are not vigilant this does not happen.

So you must become conscious of the thoughts, feelings and sensations that pass through you, and keep negative states from taking hold in you. As soon as you feel an inner malaise, react. Often a small gesture is all it takes: water some flowers, smile at someone, say a kind word to him or take him something he needs or likes. But this will only work if you make the gesture consciously, with the intention of changing your inner state."
