Remember that your experience is totally within your control. In fact it's too much in our control than what we can handle, which is why we screw ourselves over from time to time. Just like a lucid dream. So like Gandhi said:

Keep your THOUGHTS positive because your thoughts become your WORDS.
Keep your WORDS positive because your words become your BEHAVIOR.
Keep your BEHAVIOR positive because your behavior becomes your HABITS.
Keep your HABITS positive because your habits become your VALUES.
Keep your VALUES positive because your values become your DESTINY.

And as you can see I like to read wise men's quotes because wise people got the experience that we do not yet have and they can explain what we need to do to get our own.
