When we experience negative scenarios, our thoughts become negative and this has a negative impact on our lives. The opposite holds true that when we experience positive incidences, we become motivated and feel happier. However, the big question is, how often do you remember the positive incidence as compared to the negative one? We are all guilty of being caught up in a cycle of remembering a negative incident much more often as compared to a positive one. This is the first golden rule of being your own best friend. Love yourself enough to think happy thoughts because if you always wish happiness unto others, why not wish the very same happiness unto yourself?
