Worrying & Acceptance
I&aposve talked a lot in the past about the need to control thoughts using distractions and deliberate, forced thinking in order to create a more positive mindset. But I think it&aposs crucial to recognise the importance of accepting our thoughts too.
Humans tend to gravitate towards the things we fear and if we fear our own thoughts then a part of us deep inside might even feel the need to focus more on them. It&aposs as if the more we think about something the more we understand it. And the more we understand it the more control we have over it. Which is probably true if it&aposs a tiger in the jungle but not when the thing we fear is internal, our own anxiety for example.
Worrying about what makes us anxious rarely gives us any extra understanding of it. So sometimes we do need to accept our thoughts, just with a better perspective.
