Hola !! Bienvenidos queridos visitantes 🌷 | Hello!! Welcome dear visitors 🌷
Oh my God! Sometimes I say... Will I ever learn to be patient with myself? Questions like these and a lack of self-esteem are always running through my mind. The way my thoughts constantly remind me how insignificant I am and what I'm incapable of achieving has prevented me from enjoying what I want. My boyfriend tells me that "always" is a big word, and I didn't understand it until I experienced it. There are times when my mind follows the same constant pattern of thinking I'll never be able to do things, so I avoid dwelling on them at all costs when I feel myself getting preoccupied. Sometimes it bothers me to be like this or not be able to do what I want. I feel like this has been an obstacle for many years, but the good news is that I've learned to accept things about myself that I didn't understand before, and that's a huge relief.
One of the things that has helped me is being patient with myself, but more importantly, what will be today's topic: "controlling my emotions to some extent." And why is this happening? I've realized that when I don't control my emotions, I explode and explode to the point of not thinking about what I'm doing. To put things in context, in those moments I feel like I say things that I later regret so much. It's as if my mind goes blank; I don't measure my words, I don't think about the emotional damage I could do to others and to myself. One way that has helped me control myself is listening to others. I've already started with the first step, which is being patient with myself and cultivating patience, starting with myself. It's something that I feel has worked incredibly well for me because it heals me emotionally, and I can identify more clearly what things I need to continue working on to change and what's affecting me. My mind has felt calm, and I've seen that this also helps me control what I say, not letting anger dominate me or the urge to run away when I shouldn't. I need to control what I say and how I say it because it can affect others without me even realizing it.
It hasn't been easy for me to face the music when I'm talking to someone else. If it's about me, there are things I feel I'm not really ready to say, even though I'm always told it's the same thing. I know we don't all have the same process for overcoming and healing. Not putting too much pressure on myself has also helped, as has speaking naturally and only when I truly feel I can express what's inside. Many times when I talk to my boyfriend, sometimes I'm the one who doesn't let him speak, and other times he has to drag the words out of me because in those moments I feel incapable of talking about my feelings, and that's normal because I'm healing. I'm learning to take the steps I once thought I couldn't take. I'm still working on controlling my emotions. Being sensitive doesn't help me much because whatever happens, I'm already upset. But I've learned that not putting pressure on myself, letting things happen spontaneously, and having patience has helped me tremendously. Changing to be a better person and doing things for others as if they were done for me, seeing myself reflected in others and how I could help them, is something that... It also keeps me focused, and I don't think so much about myself but about helping others. I always remember that someone could be in a worse emotional state than mine, so I've tried to stay calm and live in peace. It has really helped me a lot to take that time to think about what I need to change with patience.
"Processes take time, give yourself time, don't push yourself thinking about what you didn't do yesterday and what you can do tomorrow, but about what you can do today, right now. Live in the present, be patient and act, little by little, but act. Help yourself contribute to the change in your process; this will help you do many things for others who need it, show them love, affection, patience, empathy, kindness. This will help you, as it did me, to control your emotions and mature."
