Life is 50/50 - how do you make that work for you?

from Thrive Beyond Pornography · host Zach Spafford

-      Opposition in all things-      How often do you think you will feel good? – what percentage of time?-      What percentage of time do you think that you feel bad?-      What does it mean to resist feelings?-       When you resist feelings, you are not only denying yourself negative feelings that may serve you, if you feel them to their fullest for a short period, but you are likely also not able to feel positive feelings that may well serve you too.-      50/50 rule is that half the time, no matter what, your life is, no matter who you are, you are going to feel negative emotions. -      We often feel like there is something external that is going to make us feel like we have “arrived” -      Truth is, that the guy who makes a million dollars a year has just as many down days as a guy that makes $35k-      The woman who weights 125 has just as many down days as the woman who weights 250-      We want to think that we will not have negative emotions because negative emotions are bad in our mind and that means that there is something wrong with us. -      It is a lie that people who have x don’t have negative emotions. -      Negative emotions are part of the package of opposition in all things. -      What negative emotions are you trying to avoiding when you are buffering with pornography or other things?-      What negative emotions are you creating when you buffer with pornography or other things?-      What positive feelings are you reserving for when you overcome your pornography use?
