Zach, I enjoyed this article of yours. You've obviously given this topic a great deal of thought - and action.
By-the-way, I just wanted to say 'thank you' for choosing to follow me. I have reciprocated.
Having read your article, the one point that stands out for me is:
"Focus on Intentionally Choosing Positive Behaviors and Thoughts to Regain Control Over Your Emotions."
One of my published short stories focuses on this very point. It's titled: " Pessimism to Optimism via Australia - How an Australian Phrase Can Change A Life". If you have time, here's a link to that story: https://medium.com/illumination/pessimism-to-optimism-via-australia-how-to-change-your-attitude-to-life-34354bd4e2b2?source=friends_link&sk=76ff193677ea283d57e498dfc72e46e7
I hope that both of us can continue to write about things that interest; inspire; and bring a touch of happiness into the lives of our readers.
Kind regards,
Fred
