You control your thoughts. Your thoughts run your feelings. Therefore you control your feelings. Holding a positive frame of mind in the face of disaster is what the author Dan Millman calls "being unreasonably happy". Within every disaster, tragedy, upset, set-back, adversity, sorrow, defeat, loss, pain, injury etc., whether or not you caused it, lie the seeds of an equal and opposite benefit, joy, success etc., that you can nurture into a good that soars above the disaster that gave rise to them.
Remember that all previous failures are over and done with, past and gone forever. Yesterday is as dead as the Crimean War.
