My gosh, it's one thing to wake up in a bad mood, but it's entirely different to be a perpetual grump. If you feel grumpy...you are grumpy. If it's just a bad mood, you can usually shake it off without ruining your day and anybody else who is caught trolling through your wake. Be careful if a bad mood extends beyond 4 hours, in my book that is no longer a mood and can potentially snowball into a personality trait. If you find yourself grumpy, uptight, or fierce day after day after day, then this is now part of who you are and how people see you.
My guess is that MOST people do not WANT to be miserable and negative, they just don't know how to stop. To get out of the funk...you have to stop the junk. No more negative ME vs. THEM attitude. The only one that can improve your mood is you! It takes a lot of work, but it is possible through a hefty amount of self talk to get yourself through the hurdles of the day and pinpoint what caused this heavy burden in the first place Foul negativity is like any other addiction. First you have to want to change and second you have to work extremely hard to change. Stop blaming everyone and anyone for life's woes. Think about what YOU can do to improve your situation, talk it over with your alter ego - (yourself) or a friend or relative, look to the future and "let it go". As you let it go, you'll feel the change...you're on your way to a positive, blissful you!
What...take responsibility for my own actions? But it's not my fault...
