Find ways to set small goals, and if anything, stay in the present.

Staying in the present is really valuable because what ends up happening is you don’t get focused in the past and you don’t project into the future. So, staying in the here and now is really critical certainly when it also comes to setting goals for yourself.

Look at how your thinking is. In Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, what we say is how we think affects the way we feel. So, changing your thoughts will change your feelings, which then changes your behavior. And by doing so, that can change you as a person.

So, simply just changing how we think about ourselves and how we react to situations can affect our feelings and when we affect our feelings that way, we can get better. We can do better. And we will feel better.
