- Don’t say yes unless you really want to
- Squash your negative self-talk
- Avoid asking “what if?”
Do not think too much about what could have happened if… - Schedule exercise and sleep
It is fundamental to plan and organize you job. Do not come at the last moment! - Seek out small victories
- Don’t seek perfection
- Focus on solutions
- Forgive yourself
