The more you think about yourself, the more miserable you are.
Some good points from Jordan Peterson in this short video.
The quote above is such a good one to remember – it’s not about you! (or me, or them or whoever)
And the second point I liked was the idea that we want to know the answer to the question – Does somebody like me?
So many of us fall victim to negative self talk. Some to the point of believing that nobody likes/cares for us. It’s just not true. You are liked, cared for and loved. I guarantee it.
There are probably a lot people who like, care for and love you. Most importantly though – your Father in Heaven liked, cared for and loved you so much He sent His son to die on the cross for you – just so that you’d have the chance to spend eternity in Heaven with Him.
Make it a great day.

PS – Just because God loves you and a few others do – it doesn’t give you license to go around being a selfish jerk. In fact – knowing this should be the reason you immediately stop being a selfish jerk and start loving those around you (us). Because they should know it and feel it too.
