Many don't know that overtime you can curate the thoughts you allow in your head. If you start thinking a complaining thought just don't let the thought continue. This is by no means easy but as you build up the habit eventually the thoughts won't even pop up.
It's a positive feedback loop. I feel negative I think negative thoughts, that makes me more negative. So you have to break that loop. I feel negative, I think a negative thought, then nope not listening to that. What's something positive I can think about? That coffee I had this morning was pretty good. Oh that's right tonight I get to finish the next episode of that show I like.
Eventually your outlook gets more positive.
- sethammons 8y agoOn mobile, so I'm too lazy to find the source. When older seniors were asked the secret to a happy life, they said you choose to be happy. I feel that relates to your currated thoughts model. I can see that in myself and many who I've meet. Situations where life kicked them in the teeth and they have all the justifications to be angry and bitter, yet they are not. Enjoy the small things, don't give much heed to the negatives. The most important step one can take is the next one. Enjoy the journey.
