Start your day with uplifting affirmations rather than allowing this to rule your thoughts. Even if you think it's silly, say things to yourself in the mirror-like

 "Today will be a good day," 

 "I'm going to be awesome today."

Try saying, "With enough practice, I'll get there" rather than, "I'll never be able to accomplish this." small steps make a bigger change. In your daily life never use demotivating phrases.
