This pages lists some of the personal changes I’m working on. Over time, I plan to write a unique post for each one I achieve, and will link each change below to the respective article.
I am a big believer in the human capability for positive change, and I feel that people rarely give themselves the benefit of the doubt when it comes to their ability to grow and progress. Sure, it can be much harder for some than it is for others, but there aren’t many people on this planet who couldn’t be happier through positive mental changes, if only they had the knowledge and self-belief to do so.
There are a lot of things I’m working to change – things I want to understand, as well as things I want to achieve. Here are many of those things. As I grow and gain a better understanding, I’ll update this page to include how I’ve better understood or attained each thing.
- How to let go of anger and the desire for retribution.
- A subset of this is: How to forgive my existence.
- Also: How to use negative emotions for good.
- How to share the message of peace, love and unity in an engaging way.
- How to better cope with my chronic pain.
- How to delay gratification.
- I’m currently reading a book on this topic (The Marshmallow Test).
- How to accept the mistakes of others when I myself made the same mistakes earlier in my own life.
