Exercise The Things In My Control
Author: siggyI have been struggling for a number of weeks with depression. I decided I would be more careful with certain things that were in my control particularly the TV I watched and the music I listened to.
I would be more careful with those two things. Both of them I had control of. I just had to exert it. Too much of the TV I watched revolved around mayhem and murder and the music I listened to was simply not very edifying.
I certainly can avoid both. It would take awhile but I was acting as if I had no control of my moods and was a victim.
Let me see what happens if I become more careful of the TV programs I watched as well as the music I took in.
What if I played music and TV that was more edifying? Maybe my depression would lift or my moods would improve. It certainly was worth trying.
And I imagine if I looked at my life more carefully there would be other things that were more in my control but I will start off with these two things.
