- Motivate yourself. I love to listen to music. One song that always makes me feel like a million bucks is "So Fresh So Clean" by Outkast.
I really like True to Myself and Rainbow in the Sky by Ziggy Marley, theres a lot of truth to them and some things I can relate to personally. My point is you gotta find what works for you.
Everyone in this post is telling you to become happy and giving a lot of very useful advice in doing so. The key to all of it is persistance. If you do this for a day you may get the benefits for a day. Take this to mean you need effort if you want results. The definition of a "magic pill" versus a solution that works, isn't the fact that one is the right concept the other is wrong, it is that a "magic pill" means when you get some good advice but expect it to work instantly to fix everything. Whether or not this is the case depends on the individual, but regardless everyone must persist on their road.
It is a good thing that you are aware of your anger. Very very good. Becoming aware of my emotions was the best thing I've ever done in my life. I can say that with absolute certainty. The next best thing was realizing I am in control of them. You cannot get caught in this trap, it will lead to more of your suffering: you see something you want and feel good, you do not go for it and so you feel bad, or it leaves and for some reason that makes you feel bad too. This could be a woman, a deal on shoes, anything. What is happening here is you are basing your hapiness on outside events. Let me tell you, you have lived until now with these circumstances, so in fact you can confirm this through your experiences, it is okay that you do nothing. You are still alive today, despite doing nothing. Where you are going wrong is when you feel bad about it.

You've got to follow the number 1 rule of DJing, baby. And do YOU know what that is? It's YOU. Catch my drift? The point of being a DJ is doing what makes YOU happy. Just remember. It's all about YOU.
Tell me something, do you want to be happy? Stop reading right now and answer the question. Yes? No? Be honest. Its okay for other things to make you happier, the better a state you can call upon at any moment to make yourself feel great the better your life is - tit for tat. Since you're aware of your anger you can now be aware of your happiness.
Sit down right now and feel that anger. Stop thinking for a second and feel just how damn bad your crappy ****ed up **** for breakfast no women negative self talk ******* no friends life really is. You've gotten accustomed to coming home and treating yourself like **** right? You piece of **** if you can't do this then you can't even get that right and you're a failure at failing. So go sit down and stop your thinking. You'll be surprised at how many thoughts pop into your head and make you feel worse and worse and don't you dare ****ing get up and read beyond this paragraph before you honestly scream at yourself "I've had enough you **** stop making me feel like ****" Go do it right now CapedCrusader08, and anyone else in fact who this rings a bell to. Don't read on until you do. I mean it.
Let me just say now that if you chose to ignore the most practical thing you can do right now - take a simple action and feed into the secret desire you have to feel like a crushed ****head before you even sit up, then really what can we help you to do? You want to feel like ****. You've told me and everyone here this so many times. You have 5+ threads with that in the title, and that repeated over and over again in your posts.
Now that you have a concept of just how bad you can feel, I don't want you to feel good yet. I want you to read this, then apply what the others have said. That is, if you truly would prefer not to live your life in that horrible pit of depression. I'll give you this, it's not hard. I can think of all the **** that's happened to me in the past too. Its very comforting to feel like you're a goodfornothing who can't do anythng because then you don't have to do anything. You can be a lazy slob, and that might be for you. But laziness doesn't bring happiness, to me at least. If that's what you want out of your life again, by all means. Your life is what you make of it:
i realized in trying to buy things i had placed inherited meaning in them through a secret belief
that i was not myself already, but instead i found myself through my posessions. it was then i
began to understand more fully the separation from material posession did not mean to dissociate
onesself from the need or use of material posessions, but instead to take away meaning from them,
such that if your house burnt down you would have the recourses to fully replace it to how you had it
before. I like to call this insurance of life, and it is something that in every aspect of everyones life,
they have. it is just a matter of realizing the true potential and taking away the meanings held over anything
you believe about others by either lack of experience or through negative experience. this seems hard to do
at first because another belief we have is that if you do not gain closure for a past event you will not
be able to live without its effects. this belief comes from the current methods of psycology, and their
predecessors who influenced them. This, however, is a very peculiar contradiction between the theory and
practice of the subject, as elementary psycology introduces brain cells which grow dendrytes and connect
to other cells thus creating the connections that allow us, through repetition, to form unconscious patterns
of behavior and therefore life. Thus how can it not be apparent that by thinking more and more through
ever-changing arbitrary perspectives in an effort to "find something" which cannot be so much as described
before it is "found" - causing of course a catch 22 that serves to build on itself; this is a natural
function of the brain and works for both negative and positive forces we consciously build - we build up
the only thing still linking us to the event - how we feel about it. Another limiting factor that I struggeld
with for a while was the belief that "but the past has so much meaning i can take from it." If you think like
that there is nothing wrong with you, yet, but there will be if you do not take the time to understand that:
when you take meaning and lessons from something that has happened, you are limited to the meaning and lessons
it can hold, which in and of itself has been fine since the dawn of mankind, however through personal experience
we have discovered that there is so much more to be experienced if you look for it. So why look at what there
was if we dont want that to happen? What there was only tells us what there is now. What there is to come is
for us to say.
Affirmations, what do YOU want? How do you know you're not getting what you want if you don't know what you want?
