YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

We all have negative thoughts, so we all need to get used to it.

If you happen to be human, sentient, conscious and have a sense of self, then congratulations, you probably suffer from negative thinking like the rest of us.

The problem is that we spend so much time trying not to have negative thoughts, we end up causing more negative thoughts about having negative thoughts, and that spiral of anxiety is no fun for anyone.

In this video I talk about not just how to deal with negative thoughts (in three steps), but how they can actually be fucking useful, too.

Intro: 00:00

Step 1: Accept that failure is a natural part of life 00:49

Step 2: Practice self-forgiveness 3:16

Step 3: Don’t judge your negative thoughts with more negative thoughts 7:25
