I'm never going to

Get a job! Seriously, this is a hard one to stop when you are looking for a job. But I will try.

Creeping thought: I'm never going to .... get a job again. (There are many creeping thoughts.)
Positive thought: The right job will come along. Of course I'll work again. Patience. Patience. PATIENCE GOSH DARN IT.

Lesson learned. I cannot always be upbeat. It's unnatural. But I'll keep trying.
