habits to more positive ways, whether you are aged 7 or 70. But
remember to be aware of the yo-yo effect discussed earlier.
When something seemingly negative happens, rejoice.

explaining that 'What I thought was ill-mannered was really an act
of pure love. Instead of being thankful for this act of God, I was
pre-occupied with myself.'
