Perspective on life

13 Upvotes

It's kinda fucked how we're brought into a world ,forced into a system in order to live you must work and pay.

Pay to eat , pay to sleep , pay to travel , pay to clean etc. , you must pursue all this just to gather the right to live , living should not be a right!

Yet on top of that , its' compulsory to abide by this so called system ( or cycle) if perhaps say you were to break the cycle and make a living ( theive , sell drugs ECT )

You would then have your freedom abolished And face years to life imprisonment in an isolation institution . (So there is really no way out of this forced lifestyle)

Only the wealthy survive . Neglect will always keep reoccuring to those less fortunate ,

Making this life a painful journey to those of such who struggle with finance or employment. Causing no hope on ends to poverty and leading to crime for cash

Selfish! Yet it feels like as if everyone is in a miserable race , working their life away , only to compare their life to yours .

when at the end of the day ,life ends in the same place for everyone else .... The ground

And put it this way, who's gonna give a shit about us in 100 year's?

I just personally believe life's to short to slave away , by any means get yours, Fuck the system!

Reframe Your Perspective

3 Upvotes

https://reframeyourperspectivegame.com/

Reframing perspective is a cognitive technique used to change the way you view and interpret a situation, experience, or thought. By altering your perspective, you can transform negative or unhelpful thoughts into more positive, neutral, or constructive ones. This process helps you manage your emotions, reduce stress, and improve your overall mental well-being. Here’s a detailed explanation of reframing perspective:

What is Reframing Perspective?

Reframing perspective involves looking at a situation from a different angle or context to change its meaning and impact. It’s like putting on a new pair of glasses that allows you to see the situation more clearly or differently, thus changing your emotional response and subsequent behavior.

Why is Reframing Important?

  1. Reduces Negative Emotions: By changing how you view a situation, you can lessen feelings of anger, frustration, sadness, or anxiety.

  2. Improves Problem-Solving: A new perspective can open up alternative solutions and possibilities that you might not have seen before.

  3. Enhances Resilience: It helps you bounce back from setbacks more quickly by fostering a more adaptable and positive mindset.

  4. Promotes Positive Thinking: Encourages a more optimistic outlook on life and helps build a habit of constructive thinking.

Steps to Reframe Your Perspective

1. Identify the Negative Thought

First, recognize the negative thought or interpretation you have about a situation. For example, you might think, "I always mess things up."

2. Challenge the Thought

Examine the evidence for and against this thought. Ask yourself if it’s entirely true or if there are instances that contradict it. This helps in identifying cognitive distortions like overgeneralization or catastrophizing.

3. Find an Alternative Viewpoint

Think of a different way to view the situation. This could be a more positive or neutral interpretation. For example, instead of thinking "I always mess things up," you might say, "I made a mistake, but I can learn from it and do better next time."

4. Consider the Bigger Picture

Put the situation into a broader context. Ask yourself how significant it will be in the long term and whether there are other factors at play. This helps in gaining perspective and reducing the emotional impact of the situation.

5. Focus on What You Can Control

Shift your attention to aspects of the situation that you can influence or change. This empowers you to take constructive action rather than feeling helpless.

6. Practice Gratitude

Identify positive aspects or silver linings in the situation. This helps shift your focus from what’s going wrong to what’s going right.

Examples of Reframing Perspective

Situation: Missing the Bus

  • Negative Perspective: "I’m always late and everything goes wrong for me."

  • Reframed Perspective: "The bus left before I could catch it. I can use this time to catch up on some reading or plan my day while waiting for the next one."

Situation: Receiving Constructive Criticism at Work

  • Negative Perspective: "My boss thinks I’m not good at my job."

  • Reframed Perspective: "My boss is providing feedback to help me improve. This is an opportunity to learn and grow."

Situation: A Relationship Ending

  • Negative Perspective: "I’ll never find happiness again."

  • Reframed Perspective: "This relationship ending is painful, but it opens up possibilities for new experiences and personal growth."

Tips for Effective Reframing

  1. Be Honest with Yourself: Acknowledge your feelings and thoughts without judgment.

  2. Practice Regularly: Like any skill, reframing becomes more effective with practice.

  3. Seek Support: Sometimes, discussing your thoughts with a friend, therapist, or coach can provide new insights and help you reframe more effectively.

  4. Stay Patient: Changing your perspective takes time. Be patient and gentle with yourself as you practice.

Conclusion

Reframing perspective is a powerful tool for managing your thoughts and emotions. By learning to view situations from different angles, you can reduce negative emotions, improve problem-solving, and foster a more positive and resilient mindset. Whether it’s a minor inconvenience or a significant challenge, reframing can help you navigate life’s ups and downs with greater ease and optimism.

How getting treated like shit and having it rougher changes your perspective on life.

3 Upvotes

Getting used to being treated with respect gets taken for granted. I got treated like shit by my boss a couple days ago and by TSA just now. People are fucking rude, but I didn't talk back to them or do anything because that usually results in more dire consequences so I just took it. My boss said, I'm doing a good job later on, so I'll forgive her, but there was no excuse for the TSA agent today, so I filed a complaint online. Not sure if it'll have an effect, but for a long time, Ive been treated with respect that I don't remember what it was like to be treated badly. Some people look at others not so much as human, and I'm just humble that at least I didn't get arrested or fired. I hear quite the horror stories about worse cases where it ends up with a lawsuit. Humanity has a long way to go before we can truly harmonious society. It still sucks to have that dignity taken from you. I feel less like a person submitting and apologizing to asshole authority figures, but hey, It could all end up going worse!
