You can choose to be happy by choosing to use one or more of these strategies.(Chapter 8)
==> SIX "HARMONIOUS FUNCTIONING" mental control strategies to
"RISE ABOVE" negative emotions (think of CHUG-OF to remember the six):
1. CHOICE. Replace or convert the situation. Do what you enjoy or enjoy what you do!
2. HARMONY of motives. Resolve inner conflicts between parts of yourself to look forward to activities--instead of trying to motivate yourself by rules, "shoulds," threats, or "beating yourself up."
3. UNDERSTANDING. Understand, create a mental map, build skills, and develop plans.
4. GOALS and EXPECTATIONS. Keep the task challenging--not too much or too little.
5. OPTIMISM. Clarify how you can realistically be happy no matter what outcome occurs.
6. FOCUS. Keep your "eye on the ball" and persist--and remember your "top goals."

►• I care about every cell, system, and value in myself. Every cell and every system in my body and mind is important to my overall functioning, health, and happiness, and I care for each one. One way to care for each part of myself is to give it proper exercise and allow it regular harmonious functioning. from You Can Choose To Be Happy by Tom G Stevens PhD
