Give any problem or drama 36 hours and watch it change.
I can't tell you how many times I have seen this happen. You could almost set your watch by it. Whenever I get upset about something, 36 hours later, I have a completely different perspective.
I don't know why 36 hours is the magic number, but it really is. It gives you time to digest it. It gives time for you to stew in it. It gives you time to come up with "Plan B." It usually makes your life a lot easier.
~ Marilu Henner
So don't rush to judgment.
Don't rush to action.
If something is a problem, give it a little time and watch it change.
If it's not going to change in the universe, at least it may change in your mind so that you can change it in the universe for yourself.
