The top 10 core beliefs for a life of happiness and success. These are beliefs that you must get intimately acquainted with to improve your chances at a successful and contented life. These are helpful for anger management as well. Most of us have negative, destructive tapes playing continuously in our heads (‘I’m not good enough’, ‘I’m lazy’, ‘I can’t do it’ and so on). These old tapes must be reprogrammed with positive, supportive, encouraging tapes to help you become more resilient and active.

These are all very good principles to keep very conscious of. I have a tendency to tell myself almost the exact opposite of these affirmations! I find it quite incredible that I do this – it seems so incredibly self-destructive. I wonder why this is the case though. How did this type of negative self-talk and thinking get started? Why can’t I be more positive and therefore more kind to myself and others? Why do I so consistently think in ways that are not supportive? Was it the way that I was raised? My parental and other influences when I was a young child? Why?
Perhaps the ‘why’ is no longer important — perhaps dealing with the negative thoughts is more important than the root cause. By focusing on the ‘why’ I’m actually living in the past when this past is no longer relevant.
Lots to think about!
