Not the obvious, but think about the way you explain things to yourself and others. Do you ever say or think things like:
"I always get..."
"then ____ happened..."
"I have to..."
The person saying these things sounds like she or he has absolutely no control over her life.
When you start making your language more active ("I did this...", "I choose to..." and so on), you'll remind yourself that you're in control of your life.
If something's not panning out (passive, again) the way you'd like, think of what you can actively do to make a happier outcome more likely.
