Don't let reality dictate your mood. No matter the circumstances, here's how to get — and stay — totally and completely psyched.

To complete this How-To you will need:

Overall superiority
A theme song
A trampoline
Essential oils
A reel of your favorite movie clips
A mirror

Warning: The public can only handle so much psychedness, so be wary of hitting redline levels of awesome.

Step 1: Ponder your own awesomeness

It's the most basic reason for being psyched: you! You're a pretty fantastic specimen of humanity, so inspire yourself by pondering the heights of your own awesomeness.

Tip: Use reflective surfaces to visually confirm your awesomeness.

Step 2: Listen to your theme song

Find that perfect piece of high-energy tuneage — one that bypasses your brain and goes straight to your psyched gland. Always have it on hand so you can administer a sonic adrenaline shot any time you need it.

Step 3: Have a dance party for one

You're starting to get psyched, now take it to the next level. Three words: Solo. Dance. Party.

Tip: Post-shower moments are especially good for dancing any lingering buzz-kill into submission.

Step 4: Create your own catchphrase

Reduce your entire philosophy to a single recognizable phrase. Say it early and often, until it becomes a trigger that takes you straight to psyched-ville.

Step 5: Break out your trampoline

This one's simple: get on a trampoline and jump. It's an immutable law of nature — optimum bounciness leads to maximum fired up-ness.

Warning: Falling off a trampoline and breaking a limb is an excellent way to become seriously and devastatingly unpsyched.

Step 6: Get your smell on

Take a few tips from aromatherapy: Fragrances with strong notes of jasmine, cinnamon, or grapefruit are all known for their stimulating properties, leading you to additional levels of psycheditude.

Step 7: Watch your clip reel

Occasionally you might need to psych yourself up by looking to the awesomeness of others. Edit the "get-psyched" scenes from your favorite movies into a clip reel. Watch whenever you feel your level of psyched-ness dropping.

Step 8: Share the psyched

Psyched-ness is contagious. Get your friends stoked, and their pumpitude will return to you a thousand-fold.
