In the life of every human being, there is pain, loss, illness,
loneliness, and death. There is no claim to a long life and still may be spared
by fate. Do you have pains and fear for something or about something? Here is a
simple method for overcoming all of these negative emotions.
Describe your situation and your
problem briefly. Find a pad of
paper or a journal book and answer the following questions:
- How is your situation exactly?
·
What is the
problem?
·
Where is the
center of the problem?
Consider your emotions. What are the feelings in you? Fear, anger, addiction, desire, or grief?
Which feeling is the strongest? Where is the feeling sitting in your body?
Consider your thoughts. What thoughts are connected with your
feelings? Why are you sad, anxious, angry or yearning for something else?
- Count down all your stressful thoughts: My thoughts are...
Think about the triggers. What triggers your problem? Is it one
thing or a variety of things?
Think about different solutions. What is the way out of your problem? What
brings you to love, excitement, fulfillment, fortunately, satisfaction? Think
about your problem until you find a solution.
- Collect all the information you need to find solutions. This might include reading about how other people have dealt with similar problems, or it can be as simple as collecting together your past successful approaches to facing a problem.
Follow your positive thoughts. Fulfill your positive life plan. Avoid
meaningless brooding. Don't leave your dreams for others to fulfill.
- What is your positive duty now? "My positive sentence is..."
·
Attempt to draw your eyes and thoughts to the
positive.
·
Create a diary of gratitude. Every day, write
down three things that went well, or three things you are grateful for (even
little things!) - after a week, you will start to see that every day has
something to appreciate.
·
Spend 10 minutes
each day writing about the best possible outcome for your life. What would your
life be like if all your hopes and plans went as well as they possibly could?
Keep working on this picture, filling in more and more details as you get clear
on them.
Find your personal path. The sense of life is to live a good life. It
is even better to be happy than to be unhappy. Look closely at your skills,
your life situation and the world around you. Then you know what you have to
do. There is a way for everyone to be happy and to live permanently in
all-embracing love.In every life there is pain, loss, illness, loneliness and
death. We have no claim to a long life and still may be spared by fate. What is
your pain today? Here is a simple method for overcoming negative emotions.
Turn
your anger against things you can do something about without being destructive. If you're
fat, turn your anger against your belly. If you are fearful, turn your anger
against your fears. If others are nasty, turn your anger against the ignorance
that is the basis of their nastiness. If you are addicted, turn your anger
against the substance that provides temporary fix but long term misery. If
society is oppressive, turn your anger against the prevailing folly.
