how to think good

STEPS

When you are thinking of a bad song or a bad thought that you can't get out of your head don't try to get rid of it, otherwise it will come straight back at you. It's like physics - every action has a reaction. If you hit a wall, it applies the same amount of force back. Thats why your hand hurts. Try not to throw away the thought, just regard it as any other minor thought, however horrific, and don't feel guilty about this. Naturally your thoughts will move on.
It's only when you regard it as a big thing that you will dwell on it. Furthermore, think like this. If you did carry on thinking about it, you would simply justify yourself and the position you were in. However, this just spends more energy on it which isn't a good thing. Remember, it's already happened, thinking about a bad thing will only prolong your bad mood.
If you're apprehensive about something, think as if it's already happened and gone amazingly. This way you're setting your self in good stead for it. Thinking this way also relieves the pressure.

TIPS

Remember that these tips may work differently for different people.
Accept another's action. Never retaliate. Do not take law in your own hands. Do not hate anyone.
