[vagelyobsessed]

Maybe you can help me. I have a problem….well many problems I am a quick to judge, lose my temper, prideful, emotional, hardheaded, never listen to anyone but myself, quick to insult, self-denying, dis-organized, lying, conniving, pampered palace brat. It’s to much for me to handle. Anyone who has delt with this stuff before please let me know how you overcame this. Oh did I mention I HATE MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!

If you realize you do all of that then why not just think before you do? I mean you know that you do it, so then why do you?

Five steps to overcoming problems.

1. Admittance-when you agree that something is true, especially unwillingly:

The first thing you need to do is admit. In this forum, you have already done that. Before you can overcome ANY problem, you have to admit you have a problem even though it is not always pleasant. It is often difficult, but with God’s help, you ADMITTED next you need to….

2. Repent- To be very sorry for something bad you have done in the past and wish that you had not done it

Repenting is not the easiest step either. You need to find a quiet spot like a closet or something and close the door turn out the lights and make sure all distractions are removed. Then pour out your spirit to God, let him know your sorry, ask him for help, praise him for the work he has already done and the things he will do, ask him to help you ask for forgiveness of the people you have hurt, ask him to help you get better, top it all off with an amen. Then go ask the people you have hurt for forgiveness, make sure to let go you your pride and really ASK. Once you have done that you have REPENTED.

3. Self-Discipline- correction or regulation of oneself for the sake of improvement

Ok the first two were hard this third one is a killer. Whenever you find out that you have done something that has hurt, someone else be sure to ask forgiveness, and then try something that will make you remember not to do it again. Write a letter of apology at least 500 words long, write I will not Judge 100 times, run 20 laps around your house, deprive yourself of television or computer access, go and study until suppertime. Then you have enforced Self-Discipline.

4. Consistency-the condition of cohering or holding together and retaining form; solidity or firmness

Also, a hard one, be consistent with yourself. If you skip the repentance then nothing will change, if you skip the self-discipline nothing will change. Once you have decided you’re going to overcome something then you MUST stick to it. Trust me on this one, ask your parents to help you, if worst comes to worst ask them to ground you to the house, lift privileges for skipping a step something to help you be consistent with yourself. Kind of sounds like number three huh, well it is very different. I have a feeling you will like this next one.

5. Reward- something given in exchange for good behavior or good work

If you do all the steps and I do mean ALL, give yourself a reward like chocolate computer time or TV time again. Congratulations you are on your way to becoming a better person. However, remember none of this can happen without God’s help.

Oh my, that's a wee list you have there...
Can I suggest you write another list of all the good things about you? And then another list of all the people who love you?
