Get Busy
Most self-help experts will tell you that your thoughts are the key to changing your actions. So get busy thinking first. You have a purpose that should make you happy and now you have the time to do it. Understanding what love is will help, but making time to get your thoughts to serve a more positive role in your life is critical. Think about each letter prompt carefully and remember that there is no quick fix to make you happy. It is a process, a journey. In a way, the path to happiness in Singleship is like creating art: it takes both skill and inspiration.
Get busy writing down every single thought you have each night before bedtime. Make sure to write all your thoughts and do not bottle them up. Take a good inventory of all your feelings to discover something about the choices you have made in your life. Then take all the best stuff that inspires you and helps focus your thoughts on the future and study them. Don't worry how off-the-wall they might seem at the moment.
When you wake up in the morning you will read it again. It will tell you something about your feelings and desires. Over time these random notions will present you with two very important concepts in Singleship:
Every thought you have is not exactly trustworthy. Some feelings may betray your new purpose.
You must take the time to edit these random thoughts in the light of the day. If you have recently been through a breakup or you have been feeling very lonely, take some extra time to get your mind right. Cross out the bad stuff. Keep the good stuff that inspires you toward a better future.
This concept comes from the ideas happy singles had about how their emotions shaped their single experience. This activity will help you keep your purpose at the forefront of your mind at all times.
Leave some time to write down any random thoughts you have. Write about any anger you feel toward and ex-mate or date. Edit these for clarity and cross out negative thoughts. What did you learn from them?
Finally, ask yourself this one very simple but important question: do the random thoughts in your head support your purpose and future or endanger it?
