"this too shall pass" statement can be important ..
One more thing that can be useful is by asking
what difference does it make 2 years from now
what difference does it make 10 years from now
what difference does it make 50 years from now
You might realize the things on which you are worried, frustrated are very trivial.
So you can look from different perspective or simply accept is and observer it from third perspective. -

Works most of the time 
When it doesn't, I forgive myself, I'm only human |
