Negative emotions are not necessarily bad emotions. As human beings, we are complex creatures and everyone gets angry sometimes and everyone gets frustrated sometimes. Especially running a small business, I get frustrated with myself a lot because I feel like I am pouring my heart and soul into things and not getting anything in return. I have to remind myself that success is not linear and to give myself some grace, especially this time of year. Have a lovely night everyone.
Decide Your "NO" Ahead of Time. You do not need to interact with everyone, go to every event, or stay anywhere you feel uncomfortable. Identify those people, events, and situations that you want to avoid and opt out. It's OK. Saying NO is self care.
