Its true..cognitive behavioral therapy 101 . Lately I have been getting better at that . Where I always get stuck at is actually integrating ACTION into my life . I'll halt the negativity , only so far as ignoring it but not really changing my bad habits . If I get into a phase of very good behavior (living healthier , etc ) thats all it is, is a phase , and I dont come out of it with the bad thoughts returning , I just get bored and forget all about it . Its lazyness . Eventually I realize that I trailed off and failed again , and am returned to the beginning .
