How Useful Is It To Look At Life

A lot in our life depends on how we look at it. Yes, precisely on our life, because often, the way we perceive (see) the events, actions and words of other people depends on the state in which we are. In other words, what is inside of us we project onto the world around us. In fact, each of us sees the world around him in his own way, and, accordingly, relates to it as well.

So we create many points of view on our own life, but there are points that we use often, and there are others, they have been used a negligible number of times.

If we conditionally divide them, it turns out that these are the points where I am satisfied with myself, and, consequently, with my life. And the points where I am not happy with myself, and I have a bad attitude towards life.

How often are you unhappy with your life? The question is not at all trivial, since the answer to it tells about which points you use more often.

In the choice of points of view on our own life, we are completely free, because in our thoughts, no one can climb or control them, this is only our choice. Moreover, you can move, switch from one point to another very quickly (you only need training).

Often, how people choose the points from which they see their life miserable and terrible is influenced by the habit of devaluing their own results in this life. People are more likely to see their mistakes rather than victories.

Devaluation is a very insidious beast, when we devalue our achievements (and everyone has them), then we ourselves make ourselves unhappy, rob ourselves of the joy for past successes. And one more very unpleasant fact, we stop loving and developing in ourselves those qualities with the help of which we achieved or acquired something in life.

Devaluation contributes to the fact that we stop developing these qualities, and in general to develop. Forgetting that instant or quick results are possible only in childhood. Remember when you asked your parents for a toy, and if you behaved or did something, you were almost guaranteed to get what you wanted. The trouble is that life does not give such guarantees to anyone.

Yes, the scale of victories in the past matters, but the increase in the number and quality of such victories in life can be changed. When we start to look at life from the point of view of a winner (I have something to be happy with), then, firstly, we gain self-confidence, and secondly, we see what qualities we have developed. Precisely the right qualities. And then we decide that it is useful to develop these qualities, or to train.

Such a change in point of view on your life has a very beneficial effect on your inner state. We get faith in ourselves, the understanding that we can achieve goals, and therefore manage our own lives.

And from what point of view do you look at your life?

Live with joy! Anton Chernykh.
