7 Free Tips You’d Have to Pay a Psychologist to Give You
Who doesn’t love a freebie (or 7!) now and then? I know I do, and when it’s something you’d pay upwards of $100/hr to get if you made an appointment, well…bonus!
So, without further ado, here are 7 tips you’d have to pay for at the therapist’s office. Go forth and conquer, my friends.
#7. Step out of your comfort zone
If you want to change your life – find a relationship, make new friends, learn a new skill, or land a new job – there’s a good chance it will happen sooner if you step out of your comfort zone.
#6. There’s a good chance your psychological issues stem from childhood
Spend some time unpacking how your parents acted, why they acted that way, and how it impacted you and you might be well on your way to leaving the past where it belongs.
#5. Enforce your boundaries
It’s okay to have boundaries and expectations that they be respected, even in personal and family relationships. If nothing else, enforcing your set boundaries will make the other party realize that you’ll stand up for yourself if need be – and that’s a start.
#4. Express more opinions, offer fewer judgments
Accusing people puts them on the defensive instead of considering how their actions impacted you. If you simply tell them how you’re feeling, it gives them a chance to fix the situation while still preserving their dignity.
#3. Baby steps mean something
It takes 20 days to form a habit, so each day, take a small step toward the new habit you’re hoping to establish.
#2. Spend more time loving yourself than worrying about whether others love you
Comparing yourself to others is a waste of time, and one that can be damaging, at that. You have to form your own desires and personality, our own sense of self, and then be confident that no matter what others think, we’re being true to that sense.
#1. Let things go
Change things yourself instead of expecting others to change – you can’t force other people to do what you want (or to want to do what you want) so you have the choice of being disappointed or making the change for you. The latter is more healthy.
