Ways to overcome negative thinking 3


 Ways to overcome negative thinking 

Let's stop for a moment and reflect on one fact. How do you see your life now? Do you always see yourself as needing more? Or do you feel dissatisfied with what you have? We often get caught up in thoughts like I want more money, I need greater success, I want a better relationship. These thoughts make us feel like we are in a constant state of deficiency, which is a feeling that is difficult to get rid of. But Marcus Aurelius, the wise Roman philosopher, gives us a profound lesson in how to change this view. When you wake up in the morning, don't think about what today will be, but think about what you can offer today.



• Is there a solution to this?

Yes, this is true gratitude, to be grateful for what we have now without being preoccupied with what we lack. If you live in a state of gratitude, my friend, you will notice that many feelings of anxiety and stress begin to fade when you stop focusing on what you do not have and begin to appreciate everything around you, even the small things that may seem unimportant. You will find that your life has become brighter and calmer. Let us consider a simple example. Have you ever felt grateful for feeling healthy or for the person who offers you a helping hand in a moment of weakness? Or do you often forget those moments and always look for bigger or better things? We often ignore the things we have because we believe that the best is still on the way, but the truth is that the best thing we can have is to appreciate the present moment in all its details. Epic Titus, one of the greatest philosophers, said that it is not necessary to have everything to be happy, but you must find happiness in what you have. 



This is the essence of gratitude, to be grateful for the blessings you have, whether big or small, and to find an opportunity for appreciation in every moment of your life. Now I want you to imagine a specific moment in your life, a moment when you felt inner peace or simple joy, such as having a cup of coffee on a quiet morning or enjoying the smile of someone close to you. Did you feel that moment? This is gratitude in its simplest form, and this is what we should practice every day. This exercise not only enhances feelings of contentment, but also restores balance to your mind and makes you more able to interact with life's challenges in a calm and balanced manner.


Accepting imperfection Dear reader, in this world of ours, we often find ourselves chasing perfection, for example, chasing celebrities, football players, and others. We want to be the best in everything, in our work, in our relationships, and in our personal lives. This constant pursuit of perfection may consume our energy and burden us with feelings of dissatisfaction and anxiety, even if we do our best. But have you ever thought that this constant pursuit of perfection may itself be the biggest obstacle to your happiness? Marcus Aurelius was aware of this painful truth. In his notebook, he wrote, “You cannot be everything. Be as you are and leave the rest to circumstances.” These words carry within them a great philosophical depth that calls us to reconcile with our reality instead of taking perfection as the sole standard for measuring our value.



You do not have to be perfect. Religions teach us to accept ourselves with all our flaws and weaknesses, not because we accept failure, but because we know that the constant pursuit of perfection is nothing but a waste of time and energy. The feeling of inner peace does not come from the constant pursuit of rising to unrealistic standards, but from our acceptance of who we are at the present moment, my friend, and striving to develop oneself by learning new skills.

Which benefits you, whether materially or morally.

Your inner peace is what you should strive for. Let us think together about what you strive for and how to achieve it.
