Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites - Two Words to Make Your Thoughts More Positive

Are you in the middle of a big, fat, interpersonal mess? One where you’re feeling wildly misunderstood and mistreated? Want to find a way to feel better about the situation quickly?

Ask yourself “what if.”

• What if the person who yelled at me was having a bad day?
• What if the nagging ache in my knee is just a little pulled muscle?
• What if the important document I’m looking for shows up like magic when I stop trying so hard to find it?

We’re so good at “what iffing” in the opposite direction – “what if I really am as bad as they think I am?” “What if I have to have surgery on that knee?” “What if I get in trouble with the IRS because I can’t find that document?”

We take things to sometimes silly extremes in the negative direction all the time – what if you could teach yourself to what-if in a more positive, or at least more neutral direction? Try it – next time you find your brain what-iffing or worrying about something, start what-iffing positively. If it helps, get so silly and extreme about it that you start laughing.

There…doesn’t that feel better than feeling misunderstood and mistreated?
