Overcome adversity with learned optimism

How to Apply This
- ** Recognize that you are in control of your life.**
Tell yourself that you have the power to achieve anything you set your mind to. - ** Refrain from giving up when you get knocked down.**
When you get knocked down, don’t criticize yourself or hold yourself back from unlocking your potential. Understand that this happens to everyone, and get back up. Continue putting in the effort to achieve your goals. - ** Identify and challenge negative self-talk.**
When things don't go as planned, it's easy to fill ourselves with negative thoughts. However, this can be harmful than we think. It's important to pay attention to the thoughts and evaluate whether they are true and helpful.
