1) When we try to stop feelings in their tracks, we easily get knocked off our feet and find ourselves in trouble, struggling to catch a breath and work out which way is up.
2) We have to focus on making good decisions, not perfect decisions. A good decision is one that moves you in the direction you want to go.
3) One of the most important skills for learning to deal with thoughts and their impact on our mood is getting some distance from them.
4) Also known as black-and-white thinking, this is another thought bias that can make mood worse if we leave it unchecked. This is when we think in absolutes or extremes. I am either a success or a complete failure. If I don't look perfect, I'm ugly.
