When someone close to me passed away, it was difficult for me to remain optimistic. However, I realized that he would want me to still accomplish something, and I believe that he is supporting me. As a result, I'm happy that I'm working on something, whether it's a hobby that could one day lead to a job or a job where I knew nothing and everything started to work out. He would be very happy for me and would continue to support everything.

I go and read positivity quotes on my quotes website. Might sound cheesy, but just "hearing" the words from others helps cheer me up.
A gratitude practice has been the best solution. I document the reasons I have to be grateful when my feelings want to take over. It's like changing the channel with the remote control, our clicking the mouse to go to another tab. Decide to think about something else. choose a new topic to think about. remember that others are not as fortunate as we are, even when it's difficult. Anyone who has access to a discussion on the web or on their phone or some device is really part of the richest populations on earth. When contemplating how others might have it worse, i focus on what is going right. Its a click of the mouse and move on to brighter topics.
I just say to myself, "Brother, did you really think it would be easy?" What about your plans? There was so much you wanted to do. Now what? Will you turn back now? Come on, get together and go forward!" In general, this is how I motivate myself))
