It's hard to slow down and figure things out in a busy world. Try to intentionally give open, tolerant, and demanding attention to everything you do. Treat yourself as you would treat a good friend, focus on your breathing. Accept the present moment as it is without judging it so that you can use your energy to directly manage the circumstance in question.
