boy or stenographer, when you seem to antagonize those about you, when your brain is confused and you feel that you can not control yourself, just try this experiment: Stop work. Jump right up from your desk; leave whatever you are doing, and go out of doors. Walk a few blocks, or, if possible, slip out into the country and determine that you will drive out of your mind everything that fights against harmony and mental balance. Think of beautiful, harmonious things, pleasant things. Resolve that whatever comes you will be cheerful and poised, that you will not let little nagging things make a fool of you, that you will keep your mental instrument in tune.

In other words, resolve to be a man, to rise above the petty things of life. Just say to yourself, "What a ridiculous thing for a great, strong man, made to dominate the forces of the universe, to be completely upset, thrown off his base by trivial, foolish, insignificant things!" Resolve that you will go back to your work poised, self-possessed, self-respecting, and that you will put it through with power. Reason this way for a few minutes, in the open air if possible; take in full, deep breaths of fresh air, and you will return to your task a new man.
