How to prevent and overcome negative thinking

Thinking about the past or the future is the thing that often makes us anxious. Rarely do we panic because of events today. If you find your mind terkukung in what has been happening or what has not happened, remember that only the present that we can control.

2. Focus on the positive things
When we’re being so negative, we often forget what we have and focus more on what we do not have. Keep a gratitude journal. No matter the time, each day write down five of six positive things that happened that day. Positive things that could be big things or just little things like ‘sunny day’ or ‘eat the evening is stunning’. As long as you stay consistent doing this activity, it is able to change your negative thoughts into a positive thought. And when you start feeling negative, read back the journal.

3. Say positive things to yourself
Tell yourself that you’re strong, you can afford. Say it over and over, anytime.Especially, start the day by saying positive things about myself and that day, no matter if the day you have to take difficult decisions or you will not believe what you said to yourself.

8. Move
Exercising releases endorphins that can make your feelings better. Is it just runs mengelelingi block or run ten miles, physical activity will make ourselves feel better.When you feel down, fifteen minutes of sports activity can make you feel better.
