The watch is not broken. Nothing needs to be fixed. Everything is as it is. Find peace with that. You are where you are and where you are has its perks. Find them.
What can you appreciate at this moment? Go big if you must. Are you breathing? Does your heartbeat? Did the Sunrise? Do you see to it that all that occurs as it should? No, but you are a beneficiary of it. You are lucky.
What other abundance is in your life? Appreciate as much as possible and often. Appreciation is the key.

If you want to make a permanent change to improve yourself in any way, then the importance of feeling good cannot be overestimated. Many people don’t realize that they can feel good whenever they want to and without needing exercise, food, drink, drugs, permission from others, approval of others, or any other crutch they may have developed over the years.
The first step is to realize that the way you tend to feel will repeat over and over and that whatever you focus on directly affects how you feel. So spend more time feeling better to get momentum for self-improvement. Make a minute-by-minute practice of caring about how you feel and managing your focus and thoughts so that you feel your best.

All that happened before is part of the process that brought you to now. And that is all. Just a step along the way. If you notice that you often look back with regret for how you handled a situation or decision, try letting it go. You can be sure you did the best you could with the info you had at the time. You can also try switching your thinking to something more relevant — like how you want to feel now.
The past does not deserve any of your present focus unless you can use past memories to help you feel good now. For example, remembering how you felt during especially joyous experiences in your life, or remembering times you’ve felt certain ways that you want to feel again: like when you’ve felt lucky, adventurous, inspired, sexy, or proud.

The smile from a loved one, the hello from a stranger, the butterfly in the flowers, sharing a giggle with a friend, the peace that comes as you open your heart to light and love: these are beautiful moments in life.
The power and precision of the vehicle you ride in, the architecture around you, the ease of getting the supplies you need, the magic in perfect timing: these are things to appreciate.
The beauty of service, the ease with which your body works, the stars floating in the sky: these are miracles.
There is much to appreciate all around you. Look for more.

Feeling overwhelmed is often due to thinking too far ahead and thinking about things you can’t do too much about at the moment.
The cure for overwhelm is to reign in your focus. Switch to a general knowing that it will all work out. Allow yourself to feel comfortable and confident about where you are now in the process. Review the progress you’ve achieved through persistent small steps in the right direction at the right time.
It can all be done so easily. Imagine the flow. Feel the momentum and the perfect timing. It’s all coming your way.
