These Quotes Will Keep You Calm When Life Feels Like Chaos
We all go through a phase in life
when we are faced with a frustrating situation,
a looming deadline, or a seemingly never-ending to-do list
that makes us panic and lose our cool.
In those moments, it’s easy to lose yourself to your emotions
and make terrible decisions.
Don’t get frustrated or beat yourself up if you have been there before.
You are not alone.
Rationality is deeply admired, and it shapes a good character.
I collected these quotes that offer a refreshingly rational
and logical perspective on how to maintain your cool
in intense situations that are beyond your control.
These quotes may challenge your perspective
and make you feel uncomfortable,
but approach them from a logical perspective.
