The world around us is full of irritants to which we cannot but react. Modern man, with all the blessings of civilization with which he has surrounded himself, is a creature that is nervously extremely exhausted and defenseless. The frantic pace of life, a sea of information that our brain must digest without interruption, cataclysms in nature and society, economic instability and uncertainty about the future, disgusting ecology - these and many other factors led to the fact that the first quarter of the 21st century was marked by a real surge in around the world of neuropsychiatric diseases. Especially often people began to suffer bouts of depression. And what is interesting: the disease primarily affects countries with a high standard of living.
Defensive reaction effect
What does it mean not to be upset? In fact, do not react at all to those things and phenomena that cause negative emotions in us. But many of the protective functions of our body have long been lost, and we are sometimes pissed off by such trifles, whicha person who lived 200 years ago simply would not have paid attention. Another option not to get upset is to be a real don't care. How realistic is this? Hard to say. If some individuals possess such talents, most likely, they are clearly of a marginal kind. And, finally, another way that allows you not to get upset is work on yourself, on your own self-government, control of your nerves. And in this science, simple and complex at the same time, each of us can succeed very well.
Tip 1: Filter your environment
For starters, just think about how you need to behave so as not to get upset. Review your life and try to adjust your own actions in such a way as to protect yourself from trouble as much as possible. For example, you have noticed that in the presence of some people you feel discomfort, unpleasant emotions, a breakdown. So, try to cross them out of your environment or reduce the total pastime to a complete minimum. Very soon you will notice that you do not need to be upset in 7-8 cases out of 10. Position yourself in such a way that those who want to be with you take care of your spiritual comfort.
Tip 2: adapt to challenges
You should not avoid impending problems, take the pose of an ostrich or a wise minnow. Learn to behave differently: do not panic or hysterical, but act according to the situation - in a balanced and calm manner. But be sure, no matter what force majeure comes, give yourself a mindset: “Don’t be upset, everyonewill be good! This part of self-hypnosis is extremely important. You seem to be programming yourself in advance for a favorable outcome of the incident, which will really lead to victory or significantly mitigate a possible defeat.
Tip 3: Your little joys
In order not to get upset over trifles, one should look at the world philosophically. Remember Carlson with his saying: "It's all nonsense, a matter of life!" Namely, if your child brought another deuce, and the boss looked askance, they were rude in the trolleybus, the world did not turn over and did not collapse. In such cases, do exactly the opposite: caress a child - even a hooligan and indecent one, it is yours, beloved and dear! Smile broadly and radiantly at the boss. Maybe he quarreled with his wife in the morning, and he should be pitied? And apologize to the boor yourself. This will discourage him, and it will be a wonderful lesson for everyone present. Personally please yourself with something tasty and pleasant. And love yourself, be sure to love!
Tip 4: The art of being yourself
And this is also important in the fight against a bad mood. Learn to understand your uniqueness, your personal pricelessness. Remember Yevtushenko's poem "There are no uninteresting people in the world" more often. Naturally, someone can be more educated than you, smarter, more experienced, younger, more beautiful. But that doesn't diminish your value, does it? You do not become worse from such a comparison. And why compare, because life is not an eternal competition in which you definitely need to take first place. You are different or different, that's all!Realize this, imbue this thought and go through life with your head held high. Then all sorts of grief will not bother you like annoying mosquitoes and flies.
Tip 5: Don't be afraid to make mistakes
This is how psychologists advise people with a "fad" that everything should be right. Only those who do nothing at all do not make mistakes. And you are acting, therefore, you are not immune from mistakes. In general, it is better to do and regret than not to do and regret. After all, each failure is, on the one hand, an effective life lesson, on the other hand, an invaluable experience for you, and thirdly, an open door or a launching pad for new achievements.
Tip 6: Let the past go
Do not cling to the past, do not stir up past grievances, leave the “that” world to the ghosts. Live in the present and dream of the future. In the end, the past can be mourned seriously - once and for all. And you will have one or ten fewer reasons to be upset. And also very firmly believe that life will definitely make you happy! Be outdoors more often, get new experiences and believe only in good things!
