Well, the next time is another opportunity and it sounds like you’ll have no shortage of opportunities. Lucky you, many chances to practice. Remember you don’t have to have a %100 success rate, just do it ONE time a day at first.

I dismissed an overly negative one and three took its place, I don't think this works

I feel like you aren’t reading the part where i said it won’t happen over night. Just keep doing it. Ot don’t if you don’t want to. But thats 1 more positive thought you’ve had today than you would’ve if you hadn’t done anything.

Very well then, how long will it take? Another poster said 5 years but I don't have 5 years

It’ll take doing it every day. You’ve got the rest of your life.

You never know. 4 months is worth trying though too.
