Are you resisting reality and causing yourself stress?
Do you often wish things were different than what they are? Wishing a gum tree was a pear tree, won’t make it bear fruit. Sure the sun should shine more, people ought to be more caring, stress shouldn’t be a part of life and you should have more holidays.
A thought of “This shouldn’t be happening,” can make you frustrated and annoyed. It can cause you to feel frustration, anxiety, fear and doubt. Refusing to accept people, places and things takes unnecessary energy. Discouraging things happen – it’s a part of life. Sometimes you even resist the positive changes because it’s unfamiliar.
