Don’t hate-read. You know what I’m talking about. Are there blogs or people who automatically make you clench your jaw and roll your eyes? Or always trigger a reaction of “Oh dear angels and spirits, not them/this AGAIN?” Stop reading their stuff. Don’t seek it out, no matter how much ranty entertainment you feel it may be.
Hate-reading is a drain of your time and energy.
(Note: I am posting this as a REMINDER TO MYSELF, because I fall into that trap, too.)
Also don’t follow people you can’t stand. Especially if it makes you give in to the urge to send anon hate. That’s not healthy for you or for the other person. It does nothing positive to serve you.
The way my mom puts it is this: Every time you indulge yourself in hating something, you wear a path in your brain, and it gets easier to fall into it or default to it in other situations. Hating gets easier.
You should not let hate become an easy thing for you. It will not give you happiness, and it will not give other people happiness.
That is actually called self talk and it is scientifically proven. The more you repeat something to yourself, the more your brain creates a pathway and you begin to believe it. Even an innocuous statement like, ‘I’ll punch them in the face’ as a joke, can create that pathway thinking or saying it often enough and before you know it you’ll eventually become a violent person.
So don’t hate, because you’ll become a hateful person. Instead, use it as a positive:
-I am healthy
-I am beautiful
-I am smart
-I am worthy of love
-I am worth taking care of myself
-I do not deserve hatred even from myself
Think it often enough and it will become truth…probably because it already was
