Every day, each of us has a million thoughts that subtly affect the quality of life. They are like a smell: they can be Belomor, or they can be a delicious aroma. Automatic thoughts are the easiest level of our attitudes to understand. Having realized them, you can see if they help us move towards our goals and “why didn’t it work out again!?” 🤯You can catch your automatic thoughts with the help of a diary and a small amount of time daily.

But with an ordinary “dialogue” you simply relieve stress, and when writing in a diary, you analyze.⠀Understanding the most frequently repeated thoughts will give us knowledge of our general mood in life, our outlook on life and the answer to the question: why is my life like this now 🚀💎🎉🏙 ⠀Homework for the inquisitive: try to keep a diary for a week and find the thoughts you have about money 💰.
