As i told you before, there are 10 common
mistakes that you usually do to ruin the mood and lead to unhappiness
and what to do to deal with that.
6. Thinking in Black and White
People tend to think distorted so that makes a
number of things seem worse than the reality.
Think that every problem or there are only two
kinds of good or bad, or use words like "never", "nothing",
"everything" or "always" indicates that you are a thinker
polarized.
The study published by psychologists Nalini
Ambady from Stanford University have shown that the polarized thinking that
creates at least two serious problems:
First, this condition ensures the reality has
been distorted so as to encourage the emergence of bad decisions and a critical
error in judgment. Secondly, too many stray thoughts magnify negative emotions
such as depression, anxiety, anger and fear.
7. Pessimist
According to studies, people who optimistic
their lives longer and healthier. Psychologist Martin Seligman of the
University of Pennsylvania has published extensive research showing that people
who are optimistic are also more successful in a career, earn more money, have
more friends and have a romantic relationship that is more durable and better
than a pessimist.
Critically, a new study in the journal
Psychological Science also suggests that positive people have an accurate
perception of reality and deal with stress better than a negative person.
When bad things happen to people who are
optimistic, they will be more hardiness, faster to get up and tend to win the
difficulties he faced than a pessimist.
8. Dwell in a Negative Environment
Whether it's movies, music, video games or
place of residence, physical environment can affect a person's happiness
more than they realize.
Research shows that every human being is
susceptible influenced by the environment itself. The lack of natural light
coming into the house, too much clutter or poor imaging can lead to anxiety,
depression and insomnia.
The study, published in the Journal of
Broadcasting and Electronic Media and Psychological Science suggests that
consumption of too much negative media like watching a movie or a sad story,
play abusive video games, listening to angry or sad music and read books that
the contents are interfere can damage the mood, emotion and the prospect of
your life.
9. Hanging Out With the Wrong People
Almost the same as the physical environment,
family or friends who are negative, unhappy or unstable characteristics could
transmit it to you.
Several studies conducted social scientist and
physician Nicholas Christakis of Harvard suggests that the mind and emotions,
whether positive or negative is very contagious and can be transmitted to each
other in just 1 second.
Another finding states, the people who
maintain a healthy relationship will be happier than those who do not. Strong
social network is the reason why the people of Bangladesh, one of the world's
poorest countries, reportedly had the highest levels of happiness than
those in industrialized countries.
10. Selfish
A study found that understanding the
perspectives of others, being compassionate and helping others unselfishly is
essential to achieving happiness.
If people are increasingly focused on her own
then they will more often ponder, worry about appearance and create the
perception of reality that worst.
Another study conducted by Stephen G. Post of
Case Western Reserve University revealed that people who are attentive and
helpful looks happier, his emotions more resilient, have fewer psychological
problems and have increased physical health and life expectancy.
Such people are also more likely to get a
promotion at work, less stress and not easily upset.
