Be happy by yourself. Take action on your curiosity to spark joy in your life.A relationship is a bonus only if it's a positive one. When you're happy by yourself, you're less reliant on outside influences to be happy. I apply many of the 70+ mindset, lifestyle, and financial practices I've gathered to maintain a positive mindset. Taking action on my curiosity has been a huge factor in increasing my desire to learn and gain more skills that I can apply to ideas I have to develop a service or product to hopefully add value to the lives of others. Thus, by taking action on my curiosity, I go on adventures in my life that have a purpose beyond me, to positively...

Cognitive Distortions - Part 9Don't negatively label yourself or others. When you create a negative label on yourself such as "I'm a loser" you degrade yourself. It's a hostile attack on yourself.
