I saw this in a book at Working Title in Yorkville. Our boss had taken me and B to some artsy book stores in January this year to get inspiration for the art books we’d be working on in the upcoming months. I’m usually not crazy about inspirational quotes but I think these are some pretty good tenets for living a good life.
One of the things I want to work on this year is to be more positive.
I’m going to try to stop thinking negative thoughts about myself and others. Once in a while I get into a crummy mood, and I need a reminder to shake myself out of the Depression Spiral (haha) I’ve thrown myself into.
Note to self: Don’t let negative thoughts escalate!
I know it’s kind of morbid, but I think about death quite a lot. But it reminds me that life is short and it’s better to spend that time being happy. I watched a Youtube video on mindfulness, where the dude points out that though we spend so much time worrying about the future or dwelling on the past, the only moment that we actually live in is now. Remembering that we never know when our time will end reminds me to be more aware and present in the present.
