Before you go to sleep tonight, think of what types of things you spent most of your day thinking about. Maybe you can conjure up a pie chart in your mind. Maybe you spent 25% of your time that day thinking about family obligations (or exchanges of affection). Maybe you spent 10% learning something new. Maybe you spent 15% of your time thinking about a neighbor or co-worker that annoys you. Think graphically about the proportions of time your mind was focused a particular way. Did you spend more of your day engaging your mind in unpleasant thoughts than positive ones? Rather than trying not to think about something you don’t like, when you notice your mind drifting to an unfullfilling thought, try to think of something you know makes you feel happy or productive.
