Counter Thinking!

Have you ever wanted to get rid of a thinking habit in your mind?
a habit of thinking bad things? a jealousy of other people? an insecurity that you feel??

This is the method that i use to get rid of all that annoying thought. I called this "Counter thinking".
Counter thinking is way to cover your thinking habit by cover it with another thinking habit.

I tried this and it's quite successful for me, so i want to share it

First of all, you need to understand why your certain thinking habit is bad, and your reasons why you want to change them. This will create an objective for you. If you've found your reason, then you need to be aware on when this bad thinking habit of your's showing up, and how. Then trained yourself to think your objective right after your thinking habit comes up and why you should get rid of it. Keep it that way, train yourself then your mind will automatically pushes your bad thinking habit by your objective.

Let me gives you an example :

In the past, i used to have a mental disorder called SAD (Social Anxiety Disorder). To put it in a simple way, SAD is a feeling that the whole world is watching you, dislike you, and secretly talk shit behind your back. Every people usually have an SAD, but in a normal quantity. Mine used to be overwhelming. I can think a person hate me if they don't smile after i greet them. I think my friends are talking about me when they go but left me behind (even if they'll already asked me to go, but i can't). This feeling are affecting my attitude towards them, i can even hate someone because i feel they hate me, and i don't even confirmed their feelings towards me.

As a result, i got no close friend. I got friends but i feel insecure towards them, this makes my life so uncomfortable in so many ways.

Then i tried to think "nah, it's just your imagination, they love you" "stop it! if you keep thinking like that you'll got no friends" "insecurities are annoying, why you keep annoying yourself, live your life" etc.

My objective is : "I can't keep feel insecure, because it's annoying, and it's making walls between me and my friends. I need to stop this to make a good friend"

Then, everytime i feel some friends don't like me, i'll keep thinking about "no, it's just your imagination, do whatever you want as long you feel it's good". After a while it become like a reflects and the result is i now feel much, much less insecurities than before. This makes me have a lot of friends and i feel close to them.

I don't know if this is works for anyone, but it does work like magic to me..

the key is remind yourself with your objective

Happy Countering People! :D
