When you are displeased in any way for any reason,

1. Ask God for self-awareness (and do so daily)

2. Do the "Humility Prayer". (and do so daily)

Do NOT believe that you are right about anything you are feeling, thinking, wanting, etc.

[Humility Prayer: Jesus I am sorry all of my perspectives, attitudes, priorities, judgements, wants, and desires are wrong. Please heal me, fill me with Your Graces, Virtues, Truth, and Love. Show me Your Truth, and give me Your perspectives, attitudes, priorities, judgements, wants, and desires on everything. Thank You Jesus.]

3. Do the "4 Prayers for Forgiveness" and Offer up to God what is happening
for compensation of your sins, anyone else involved, everyone on your prayer list, all in purgatory, and the entire world for all of time.

[4 Prayers for Forgiveness: Jesus help me forgive ___; I do forgive___.  Jesus help me to accept___; I do accept___.

4. Immediately write down everything you are feeling, thinking, believing and wanting.

5. Ask Jesus what He wants you to learn, change interiorly, and do differently exteriorly (and do so daily).
