I am amused by how many times I’ve actually come to the conclusion this self-same conclusion, that right now, in of myself, I am sufficient for the tasks at hand. At this moment, everything I need is within my reach, and whatever is outside my reach doesn’t matter, no matter how much I might want it.
I hope against all hope that I remember this simple fact the next time I am faced with extreme crisis.

I think this is a powerful defense mechanism, but it's just like saying I should smile when I feel like crying. Cynicism is an art. Hahaha! It’s a self-inflicted crisis, it's a crime, it's a sin.
