"The obstacle is the way" - Marcus Aurelius
Did you know that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_behavioral_therapy is basically (at it's core and in a simplistic way) repeating mantras that make us embrace the challenges that the world has brought us?
Repeating mantras really works for me when negative thoughts come into my mind.
So yes, try it out. Whenever you feel a negative (hatred, depression, delusion, etc) thought, i.e "this was so unfair", "why did this happen to me?", "I'm not good", etc, etc, etc
Just put it in a:
"The obstacle is the way" by Marcus Aurelius
"I cannot control the waves, but I can learn to surf."
"This too shall pass."
"Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional."
"I am in control of my response."
"Everything will be alright."
Have a great day and remember the obstacle is the way. We're all going through it. That's the way.
