Читать книгу Happiness Diet for Your Mind - Timothy Anspach - Страница 3
Introduction
ОглавлениеAre you f*cking kidding me?! That is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard anyone say! How the hell can anyone really believe that, what an idiot! This is what is wrong with the world today, everyone is a f*cking moron!!
I am writing this book because this is how I use to start and end my day. I was eating a mental diet of 24/7 national news and reality drama that created an emotional state that left me jaded, angry, lonely, and miserable, but I was unaware I had the power to change my emotional state by simply changing my mental diet. I thought I just had good days and bad days, I didn’t realize I could create the day I wanted by controlling what I surrounded myself by and what activities I indulged in. I have found a simple and easy way to increase my level of happiness on a regular basis by creating a mental daily diet that creates the type of thoughts I desire and therefore the mental state I desire. By taking control of what mental stimuli I choose to indulge in each day I am able to more easily control the thoughts I have that then create my emotions. The way you feel right now is the result of the thoughts you are having right now, and only you control them and only you choose what stimulus to indulge in that affect those thoughts. The ideas I speak of are nothing new, they are simply put in a form that more people are accustom to understanding. We all understand that proper diet and exercise are the keys to a healthy body, and I am simply applying that same theory to your mental health. Most people are not aware that they have control over their mental diet and what they mentally indulge in. What you choose to mentally indulge in will greatly affect your thoughts, and your thoughts create your emotional state. I am writing this in hopes that it will help people become more aware of what their current mental diet consists of, and if they are not currently happy on a regular basis, then for them to learn how to create a mental diet to help them get to the mental state they desire on a more consistent basis.
