First, recall that you were in a different place recently and you'll get there again. And it wasn't a sham... if it had been, she'd have seen right through it. It was as real as any mindset ever gets, it just isn't something that you get to keep for every second of every day of the rest of your life. None of us are that fortunate. But if you keep paying attention, you can learn how to get yourself back into it faster and stay in it longer... you are not a stupid person, after all.
Exercise helps. Sometimes standing up straighter and taller is enough to change your mindset to match.
a fine and enviable madness, this delusion that all questions have answers, and nothing is beyond the reach of a strong left arm.
