Do you have to occasionally tell yourself something? If so, what is it?

Question

I have to occasionally tell myself to shut up, get over it, life will go on, etc.

Answer 1

I have to tell myself to not get so upset at situations that I have no control over.

Answer 2

I tell myself the same kinds of things that you tell yourself. I also carry on entire conversations mentally about just about anything. That's a great way to come up with story ideas, etc...

Mostly, I just tell myself to keep going, get up & try again, don't give up, hang in there, do a good job, do the right thing. That's the one I say the most probably. Do the right thing, even when it hurts.

Answer 3

Yea, I seem tot talk to myself. I do the typical shut up or chill out, or take a deeeeep breeeeath... I also do stupid stuff like, don't forget to put that away when you're done (then I forget!) or Should I do this, or that? Which would be better to get done first? Or, my usual, I need to get offa the computer... Just 5 more minutes....

I also talk to the car. "woah suzi," "You need a bath suz," or "Good girl, ya did good." (Suzi is my Isuzu with many prob - er, I mean, quirks.

;o)
