"After all, tomorrow is another day" - Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh) in "Gone with the Wind"
Always a good thing to remember. No matter how hard it gets. And look at what this poor woman has been through. Her city is ransacked by war and burned to the ground, all her wealth is gone, and she has to wear curtains (Oh, wait. That was Carol Burnett). Either way, the phrase still rings true.
Transition Coaching
Take a moment to look back into your past and see just how true it really is for you.
Remember a day when things were really, really bad. When it felt like it just couldn't get any worse. Perhaps your girlfriend broke up with you, or you lost your job, or your house flooded. Whatever it is, remember just how hopeless and horrible it felt--like that pain would last forever.
Now fast forward the calendar a little bit. Maybe only one day ahead, or go forward a few days, or maybe a whole week is needed. Whatever the time frame, let yourself go to a point in your history after that dismal day, to when everything felt wonderful. You were alive and full of hope and possibility.
Now remember that there was a day after that when you felt horrible, and back to wonderful, and on it goes.
So now that you know it's true, you have proof, take a look at what you're struggling with now. Perhaps you're freaking about about money and bills, maybe your client list is waning quickly, or there's conflict and strain in your relationship.
Whatever it is, just know that there is a day coming up, another day, when this will all pass.
It's happened before, and it'll happen again.
Whatever bad is going on in your life will soon fade into memory and be sparkling again.
... unless you have to wear that dress again. Some things never go away
