Returning to the mistakes of the past is the same as wasting strength and energy. Such practice provokes stress, reduces self-esteem, and causes impotence.
Thoughts on this topic lead to a person finding himself in a dead end, deciding that his wrong choice or action has sent his life into ruin.
Psychologist Marina Greenwald told Doctor Peter how to get out of this situation.
George Bailey Method
The method involves gaining satisfaction from something that a person had not noticed before.
The theme was developed and a special exercise was developed by psychologists from the University of California at Berkeley.
It is worth noting that thoughts about the wrong choice or mistake made, without which life could have turned out better, often lead to a dead end.
1. According to Bailey's method, you need to think about the happiest event in your life.
That is, you need to think about how life would have turned out if this moment had not happened.
For example, the birth of children, an important trip, a meeting, and so on.
2. Think about what chain of events could have been interrupted if this event had not occurred.
3. Be sure to write down your thoughts on paper, dividing them into those that are significant and those that are not.
4. Next, imagine what your current life would be like if this event had not happened.
This practice will help you learn to appreciate everything that is in life and feel gratitude for what happened in the past.
Experts believe that the Bailey method can be practiced not only in crisis situations, but also by any person who has to make a choice or seek inspiration.
The technique will allow you to rethink your achievements and achieve your goals.
