I’ve developed a habit called “Positive Villain-Moding” for improving distress tolerance.
Whenever some annoying inconvenience comes up, rather than getting down in the dumps about it, I smirk and adjust my sunglasses and say something like, “A minor setback,” or “This changes nothing, the plans are proceeding nicely,” or even, “Did you really think you could defeat me that easily?”
It’s dumb but you’d be shocked at how much it helps.
@pencilears great. now I can't stop talking in the G-Man's voice, which, I do apologize for what must seem to you an arbitrary imposition...
