How to live for yourself
How to live for yourself
Few people have ever asked a question,for what and for whom to live. Psychologists agree that it is necessary to live for oneself, to love and appreciate your own "I". But how difficult it is to understand how to do it.
Instructions
1
Analyze what you like in your life,and from what you would like to get rid of. Divide the sheet into three parts. In the first list all the things and things that bring you pleasure in everyday life: playing with a dog, watching old Soviet cartoons, trips to the sea, tasty buns with cinnamon, shopping in the technology department, etc. In the second part, note those phenomena that lead you into despondency or anxiety, which you would gladly get rid of: bored work, excess weight or an old machine. And in the third part describe your dreams, what would you like to do in life and what are you trying to get.
2
Be honest with yourself. It is not necessary to indicate in your records that you are dreaming about moving abroad, only because it is the goal of your family. Listen to your desires. Separate them from the imposed opinion from the side and persistent stereotypes. Before you start living in harmony with yourself, you need to learn to understand and accept your desires.
3
Save the first part of your analysis. When you become hard on your soul or you feel that you are living the wrong way, it is boring and depressing, but for yourself there is absolutely no time, read your notes. Set aside all the work and spend a little time just for fun. Urgent work, obligations, relatives, friends, enemies and colleagues will wait. Plunge headlong into the love of life.

Tear off the second part of the sheet where you describedall that you do not like and throw it away. Fighting your failures and complexes is an empty business. Direct the energy to achieve your intentions, and the problems will go away on their own. Point by point, write a detailed plan of action, how you will achieve everything you want. Do not tell yourself that your dreams are an unrealizable utopia. Want to become a famous singer - start with recording in the vocal studio near the house. Dream of a round-the-world trip - go first to camping with an overnight stay at the nearest river. The big way starts with a small step. The main thing is to act.
