Don't forget to say THANK YOU.

Psychologists believe that gratitude – is the real key to happiness. Life doesn't get any easier, but we can become stronger by paying more attention to pleasant little things. Look around: everything around you can become a real source of positive thoughts. Make a "List of pleasant things" and write down everything that gives you pleasure.

Stop comparing.

Comparison is the road to nowhere. You're good enough for yourself, and that's the MOST important thing. Learn to appreciate yourself. Embrace the fact that every person is unique, not a copy of others. You are special with your own thoughts, your own talents, your own abilities and your own uniqueness. You may think that you are not good enough, or you may cultivate your uniqueness and develop talents. Other people may have different values and that's why underestimate your life, but why should you care about others' opinion? It's much more important how you feel about your changeable life. Recognize yourself as a unique individual with special abilities and talents.

Women's manipulation.

Women's manipulations always carry an emotional component. Therefore, it is so unpleasant for a man to experience them. The extreme point of emotional manipulation is tears. At the heart of this manipulation is a model of a child's behavior of a woman. After all, only a small child begs for what he wants through tears. Women use this trick because men can't resist crying. However, over time, even the most loving man understands that tears are an element of the game and their depreciation occurs.

How to improve relations with mother-in-law?

To harmonize the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, we act as follows: 1. Do not allow open confrontation. Avoid insults to the mother-in-law, even in response to outright rudeness. 2. Gently set personal boundaries. To comments from the series “and I'm at your age”, answer that times are different and the requirements for girls too. Reproaches “bad cooking and ironing” retort “your son likes it.” 3. Don't let your husband withdraw or side with his mother. Explain that conflict is unpleasant for you, it destroys family happiness. Let the husband be part of the solution, not the problem. 4. Teach your mother-in-law to coordinate her plans with yours. Explain that you don't always have time to socialize, but you will be glad to see her at certain hours.

Don't explain your refusal.

If you refuse someone, say your firm NO, try to do without explanations and excuses. However, you should not feel guilty for saying no without explanations. People sense the inner mood, and if you hesitate, you'll be persuaded to give some comments. So, you shouldn't always say no without explanation, but sometimes it is just necessary.

Personal space and communication zones.

Each person has three spaces: ▫️ personal - (about 46 cm to one meter) ▫️ social - (from 1.2 to 3.6 meters) ▫️ public - (over 3.6 meters) A stranger's desire to come too close usually causes a negative reaction. Only friends and relatives can get close to us, it is worth respecting and not violating these etiquette rules when you get to know new people. You also shouldn't pat on the shoulder or touch an unfamiliar person, as this will cause subconscious negativity.

Women's mood.

Are you constantly depressed? Simply put, you are not in the resource. Therefore, you cannot inspire your faithful to success. Your goal is to take. Show me at least one man who does not like when his lady is always cheerful and optimistic?! Representatives of the stronger sex are charged with the energy of their beloved. In return, a woman receives a hundred times more. To begin with, understand what actually gives you joy and pleasure. Do you feel happy? Or are you constantly depressed?

A successful woman puts herself first.

This is the most important and most difficult step, because we are afraid of being known as an egoist, or even a bitch. From time immemorial, girls have been taught that their life purpose is to support their husband, his motivation and inspiration. And the higher the service to the spouse is rewarded, the greater success she has achieved in life. But in the 21st century, we have the right to think about what we want. And it is worth using this right. Healthy selfishness is normal and only it will make you a happy woman!

Why doesn't he understand what I want?

The most common problem is that we expect certain things from others, but forget to tell them about it. Therefore, it is imperative to speak in words about your needs and desires, even if it seems to you that everything is already so obvious. So, speak up. But do not swear and do not demand, but tell us about your desires and expectations.

Women's mistakes in relationships.

1. A woman projects herself onto a man and vice versa. I have already written more than once that men and women see the world in completely different ways. You should not evaluate the behavior and actions of a partner from your "bell tower". 2. A woman communicates with a man with hints. She cannot directly say what she wants, and he perceives her attempts to harmonize relations as an attack. 3. Communication is not established. Partners have little in common, no common topics for conversation, no interesting communication, no reason to admire each other. As a result, one of the partners begins to get bored and looks for entertainment on the side.

Make people feel needed by asking them for help.

If you want to ask for something, start by saying: "I need your help". People like to feel NEEDED and hate to feel guilty. By complying with these two rules from the very beginning of a conversation, you're more likely to get the help you need.

Write down your thoughts when you feel anxious.

Anyone who has been under stress or anxiety at some point knows how hard it is to abstract it away. Write down your thoughts and experiences in a notebook and then close it. Believe it or not, you'll find it much easier to focus on your work after sharing thoughts this way. This rule works in any situation: by sharing your anxiety with someone, you unload your brain and reduce the psychological burden.

7. How will I feel when everything works out?

With what face will you approach the mirror and whom will you see in it - will you be proud of yourself, or will you be overcome by sadness, regret? It means that you want to make a clearly wrong decision - try to look for another one. It will surely pop up.

6. How does the body react to the solutions?

Lie down and relax. You can do any relaxation technique first to be more comfortable. Visualize each of the possible solutions. And watch the reactions of the body. It does not know how to lie, so it will prompt the correct answer.

5. Are you sure you really need it?

You so want to change jobs (husband, cat, hair, body - whatever). It is very good to scan yourself and turn on awareness. Are you sure that this is your personal desire? Not a dream of a mother, not a desire of a friend, not a stereotype imposed by society?

4. What experiences have I taken from the past?

Very often the story develops in a spiral. What happens to us is what happened before - with minor changes. Do you remember how you acted in a similar situation before? How did it all end? What have you learned? Sometimes the easiest and most obvious thing to do is to take the well-trodden and familiar path. After all, it worked out then, so it will work out now.

3. What is the best and worst outcome?

Try to imagine in colors the best that can happen to you in the current situation. And then the worst. To the maximum. Don't rush, think. Often we ourselves do not understand what exactly we are afraid of. But when analyzing with a sober mind, it turns out that the situation is not at all as bad as it seems to us.

2. What do I choose if I am not limited by money?

A lot of undertakings crashed due to lack of finances. There is an amazing property in the Universe: when we really want something, strive for something, then the money seems to be on its own. So, perhaps you are just making up an excuse for yourself that you do not have enough funds to fulfill what you want? Dream big, it's possible!

1. What do I choose if fear does not interfere with me?

We are afraid of a lot. In some cases, we don't even realize it. We have our own fears and those that were "given" to us by our parents and the environment. We fear the unknown and even the familiar. To get started, write down all your options and the fears associated with them on paper. Imagine that you are completely fearless. Or call in an adviser to a person who can assess the situation and you objectively and sincerely. You will be surprised, but it may turn out that the best solution is the solution that scares you the most.
