We all have our “mudbones,” and it wouldn’t be a good life if we didn’t. I have a few friends who love to drink beer and party and don’t want to be bothered with the little details of their lives. I would love to not care about the minutia of my life, but I cannot. I cannot.
A recent study showed that people with a higher level of self-awareness are more likely to avoid the negative thoughts that lead them to negative decisions. Of course, this doesn’t mean you should just drink your beer and think positive thoughts, but it does show that if you can’t control your negative thoughts, the negative ones you do have will often control you.
Some people may just choose to eat their way to life, and that’s fine enough, but it doesn’t mean that you should be living in the dark. The best place to start is with the most negative thoughts.
A lot of people can relate to this sentiment, but it can cause real problems.
