How To Be Happier And Feel Better
Improving your social social choices improves your happiness
Your social circle determines your quality of emotional health
I had a client tell me, “I don’t understand why I keep picking the wrong person?” I asked them where they were going to find a potential mate and they told me it was at a bar. My reply was, “If you want to catch salmon you have to go to particular places of fishing where they live and move. If you keep catching carp that is because you keep going back to that kind of habitat where carp live and breed.” Social circles are important, if you want to be inspired, challenged to change then upgrade your social circle.
Your choice of teachers determines your quality of feelings
Who teaches us is important because we learn only to the level of our teacher. In the Bible Jesus said, “The student is not above their teacher.” We need teacher, mentors, mothers/fathers to help us become the best we can be including how to better emotionally regulate. Who do you look up to the most? If it’s yourself than that is a big part of your problem. All too many people believe that once they grow up they have arrived. Where did we learn that from? We learned that from our family and our friends. One of the most stunting things we can do is for us to qualify ourselves as the mentor of our own lives. I hard one person say they learned all their stuff from the internet and watching documentaries, that might be okay to some degree but I have seen too many people who have become mislead or confused by this method of self-mentorship. Being fearful and ignorant leads us to the place where we become our own coach, mentor, and teacher, by doing so we will forever be learning but never really changing in an objective way.
I heard a well known financial teacher once say, “I surround myself with people that are smarter than I am so that I can succeed.” I have also heard it said, “I am not my own accountant because I will lie to myself.” Having a quality mentor or mental health professional and life coach will keep us honest about ourselves whether or not we can see it or like it. Feelings change when we change.
