7 conclusions from the book «Unfu*k Yourself: Get Out of Your Head and into Your Life»
Not only psychos talk to themselves
Each of us replays the events of the day in our heads, worries about the future, shames or blames ourselves. But how do you stop doing this and live in peace with yourself? You will find the answer among the main thoughts from Gary John Bishop's book "Unfu*k yourself".
Enjoy reading!
1. Choose the right internal dialogue
Positive self-talk improves mood, confidence, and productivity, while negative self-talk does the opposite.
When we praise ourselves, celebrate achievements and achieved goals, we feel better. And when we scroll past grievances and mistakes in our heads, we roll down again. In order not to get bogged down in a swamp of negativity, choose only positive internal dialogue. And the following conclusions will help you with this.
2. In dialogues with yourself, talk not about the future but about the present
What do you tell yourself when you're wrong? Usually people think to themselves: "I will try to do things differently in the future". But the author of the book "Unfu*k yourself" writes that this is a mistake.
Gary John Bishop advises thinking a little differently. Enter into the mental lexicon: "I am now", "I accept", "I decide". For example: "Now I decide that I won't make that mistake again."
So this mental promise will work, and exactly the way you need it.
