The next time you feel the "blues'' or a fit of depression or despondency coming on, just get by yourself, — if possible, after taking a good bath and dressing yourself becomingly — and give yourself a good talking-to. Talk to yourself in the same dead-in-earnest way that you would to your own child or a dear friend who was deep in the mire of despondency, suffering tortures from melancholy. Drive out the black, hideous pictures which haunt your mind. Sweep away all depressing thoughts, suggestions, all the rubbish that is troubling you. Let go of everything that is unpleasant, all the mistakes, all the disagreeable past; just rise up in arms against the enemies of your peace and happiness, summon all the force you can muster and drive them out. Resolve that no matter what happens you are going to be happy, that you are going to enjoy yourself. Just say to yourself, "This is an abnormal condition. Harmony is the everlasting fact. Discord must be an unreality, an absence of harmony, the reality." After a little practice of this sort you will be able to clear your mental sky of all clouds and keep it clear; keep your mind free from your enemies.
