The variant I know is: Even this will pass away.

For disasters: Nothing is ever as good or as bad as it initially seems; or Nobody died.

For impossible tasks: You know how you eat an elephant?

If all else fails: Let's do it.

Regarding the last, it has a double meaning. Others may think I mean, Let's get on with this with fortitude. I do mean that; but these were also the last words of Gary Gilmore before he was executed.

Of course, mantras are great way to relax and keep calm. But sometimes I need more powerful help and I use a dropperful of CBD oil. Yep, the CBD industry is new, unregulated, and has been referred to as "the wild west", but after reading some interesting studies at https://cbdhealthyline.com I'm sure I've found the best decision for my short-terms sleep problems.

I mentally check the must have boxes in the Cimarron Firearms catalog in my head.

Every time I get nervous or experience stress, there is only one thing that helps me to calm down is vaping. Honestly, nothing helps better. By the way, I bought a new vaporizer and I am really satisfied with it, highly recommend Yocan Hit.

Whatever your age, history has shown that you’ve made it through EVERY endeavor you’ve come up against. Whatever doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger. But, when that isn’t enough...

Driving is my mantra. It calms me down and helps me to relax.
