Where’s the fun in that?
Oh happy day. The USE IT approach is here to give negative emotional reactions a makeover. Don’t let stress suck the fun right out of you. Turn the tables by learning to twist any situation to your advantage.
USE IT is a simple, life-tested five-thought mindset that works in the office, at home, on the road—and everywhere in between. Free your road-raging, passive-aggressive, always-assuming ego by learning to change your perception of stressful moments. USE IT’s mental building blocks will keep you laughing a lot more and losing it a lot less.
Follow your conscience back to fun.

Why are our brains always misfiring on their fun function? Well, because we’re all an eensy-weensy bit too preoccupied fighting stress and trying to solve other people’s problems. Ever lost it and barked at a co-worker? Assumed someone was out to “get you”? Fought just to prove you were right about something … that ended up being nothing?
