Constantly analyze yourself. Figure out why certain things upset you. Question your own motives. Understand your behavior. This creates a pathway for change. Acknowledging why you do the things you do is the first step in shifting out of toxic patterns.
lay out intentions like paving of ease in future moments. “i’m gonna have fun in class tomorrow”, “when i go for a walk i’m gonna see so many beautiful things”, “i’m gonna have the most cozy night tonight”, “i’m gonna be very present with my friend on wednesday”, etc. see how easily the moment adapts. it’s like a little spell to set yourself up for goodness
here’s the thing. in order to be a good person you have to be willing to change. you cant just ignore the constant criticism of others and never address the issues you have, ESPECIALLY if it hurts other people. you can still be known as a kind person with good intentions, but that doesn’t mean your perfect.
hmmmmm…. perhaps apathy is boring……. & perhaps passion is cool………. being excited about things is endearing……..having interests makes one more interesting…….perhaps mocking and finding flaw in everything makes one’s world less saturated and enjoyable……..hmmm……..just been thinkin about it….
also… if you have genuine interests and express them honestly… without fear… and participate in the things which excite you whole-heartedly… you will meet other people who like what you like… and they will see you represented accurately, not as an ironic creature, but as someone they can connect with and love… so if your only way of relating to the world is detached criticism… and you are also very lonely… and feel that your only friendships are non-genuine or not deep enough… consider that hating stuff isn’t a hobby which allows others to connect to you… and perhaps you are shooting yourself in the foot by not living your life earnestly… and pushing past both personal depression and societal numbness to find joy…
The day you plant the seed is not that day you eat the fruit.
you must remember that healing comes from the work. you cannot just sit on the idea of healing and expect yourself to feel better. what are you doing to nourish yourself? what are you doing to progress? what are you actively doing? yes it’s important to think on it all and create a game plan but eventually you’ll have to actually get in the game. a blueprint doesn’t build a house
