8 Sure-Fire Ways To Feel Bad About Yourself.
Feeling lousy is an art form. Some women are masters. They blend injustices from their past and present. They add flaws and shortcomings, bitterness and disappointment. They create a painting of sorrow, sadness, regret and a negative outlook. It isn't easy... just take a look at the skills involved.
Many women are masters at feeling bad about themselves and about the circumstances of their lives.
They walk through their life with a heavy heart, a pessimistic attitude and a wagon full of problems.
Their relationships are complicated; they rarely love their occupations and are seldom at peace with their body/temple image.
They are everywhere and they do this day after day after day. It is a true art form and you can do it too if you like.
Simply follow these 8 Sure Fire Ways to Feel Bad About Yourself.
1. Look at yourself in the mirror and criticize your body. Inventory your flaws. Look at your self naked and shake your head in disgust. Tell that little girl inside how unacceptable she is. Feel the shame.
2. Start your morning with a coffee and a "just below the surface dialogue" of your problems. Stay stuck there. You have a huge list of problems: people you are struggling with, unresolved stuff from your past, situations that are troublesome. So much to work with. Roll up your sleeve and pick some.
3. Have a private internal bitch session with someone who has violated your perceived borders. Tell them off in your head. Itemize their shortcomings. Take their inventory and point out the holes in their socks. Do this as you brush your teeth or on your way to work. Go over it and over it. Be self-righteous, indignant... go ahead... set the tone for your day.
4. When some innocent soul asks you how you are today...tell her how lousy you feel. Talk about bloating, headaches, your cold, your stomach ache, constipation, sore back, blood pressure... revel in it... after all... she asked...
5. Be on constant guard of your boundaries. Violators are everywhere. Notice what everyone else is doing and make sure they don't step on your toes. Ever.
6. Have 'friends' scattered everywhere through out your day to gossip with. High quality friendships that encourage nitpicking about other people's faults. People you can trust to not talk about you behind your back.
7. Make sure you have lots of avoidance techniques in your personal toolbox. Comfort foods or other mood altering activities to take your mind off your problems.
8. Do Not... do not read any inspirational materials. It will only confuse you with messages of empowerment and personal growth. Who needs that? Inner work is for weaklings anyway.
So, there you have it. A straightforward road map for spending the rest of your life feeling lousy. Join the movement. Come over to the heavy side. Life is about suffering isn't it?
Just Kidding...
Take this advice and throw it out the window. Do the opposites. Embrace this opportunity to live a wonderful and joyful life as you... glorious you...
Namaste.
