Stop the mindless wishing that things would be different. Rather than wasting time and emotional and spiritual energy in explaining why we don't have what we want, we can start to pursue other ways to get it.

The person with a fixed goal, a clear picture of his desire, or an
ideal always before him, causes it, through repetition, to be buried
deeply in his subconscious mind and is thus enabled, thanks to its
generative and sustaining power, to realize his goal in a minimum of time
and with a minimum of physical effort. Just pursue the thought
unceasingly. Step by step you will achieve realization, for all your
faculties and powers become directed to that end.

A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart, and set out
to accomplish it. He should make this purpose the centralizing point of
his thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be a
worldly object, according to his nature at the time being; but whichever
it is, he should steadily focus his thought forces upon the object which
he has set before him. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, and
should devote himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts to
wander away into ephemeral fancies, longings, and imaginings. This is the
royal road to self-control and true concentration of thought. Even if he
fails again and again to accomplish his purpose (as he necessarily must
until weakness is overcome), the strength of character gained will be the
measure of his true success, and this will form a new starting point for
future power and triumph.
