　　When everything seems out of control，it can be difficult to remain encouraged at work and in life.Everyone goes through stretches of highs and lows，although stomaching the lows can seem impossible at times.To remain encouraged you must take steps to lessen the negativity around you.Your co­workers，friends，family and even your job itself can help you overcome any low point you face in life.

★Take time off.If you have available personal days，use them to your advantage.When things aren't going as planned，showing up day after day to work isn't going to overcome the problem.Take a day or a few days off to mentally relax so you can return to normal.
