A good friend said to me a couple of years ago:

"if you can't do anything about it, then GET OVER IT/MOVE ON"

At that same time a Spanish aquaintance gave me a good positive thinking lesson, which was difficult to follow, but well worth the effort:

"don't let anger over something/someone poison your mind/body"

my personal favourite:

"Life's a beach, then you fry" :-)

Smile

Sometimes, all anyone needs to brighten their day is a smile. A smile can go a long way toward making someone feel good about themselves. If you make eye contact with someone, whether it’s an acquaintance or stranger, give them a genuine smile.

OMG that is so true.... I like that quote a helluva lot ..... it's why I hide myself away nowadays, you just get to the stage where you think, hang on a minute, stop helping everyone and their mother for free and out of the goodness of your heart and sort your own things/mind out, or just relax and enjoy life for a while instead of stressing about everyone elses problems. Sounds selfish, but had to do it for my own sanity :) i'm gonna nick that quote. A couple of people still ask favours from me even after finishing working in a particular job about 5 or 6 years ago, and stupid soft touch me can't say no, but at least i've learnt not to "offer" so much help now, i'll help out if I can, or give advice, but I won't put myself out as much.
