M.<\/b> Make sure you focus on negative thinking. Hang out with critical people who drain your energy. Count your problems, not your blessings. Discount any progress; you don\u2019t deserve it.<\/p>\n

I.<\/b> Increase your screen time. By spending unnecessary time on your computer, you will inevitably end up with eye strain, headaches, fatigue, brain fog, sleep disturbances, and depleted mental reserves.<\/p>\n

S.<\/b> Stubbornly refuse to accept the things you cannot change or control. Staying stuck and resisting is better than going with the flow; you might feel nauseous. Don’t believe in yourself, nor should you ask for any backup support from family, friends, or God.<\/p>\n

E.<\/b> Expect the worst things to happen. Let fear dominate your life. To ensure failure, replace “I can” with “I can\u2019t” to foster a sense of pessimism. Stay safe and bored in your comfort zone.<\/p>\n

R.<\/b> Rush through your days and activities. Hurry up, multitask, stress out, and lose your patience. Forget about the present moment while you experience less satisfaction and happiness in life and accumulate more health problems.<\/p>\n

A. <\/b>Avoid goals, purpose, and values; who needs that extra stress? No principles, no dreams, no plans, no life! Besides, motivation and passion are overrated. Keep it vague and always compare yourself to others.<\/p>\n

B.<\/b> Blame everyone and everything. Spend more time complaining. No reason to apologize to anyone and never acknowledge or admit that you were wrong or made a mistake.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

L.<\/b> Live in the past and make sure to hold onto those grudges, anger, resentments, and regrets. Don\u2019t forget to worry about the future. And don\u2019t forgive; just keep the pain alive.<\/p>\n

E.<\/b> Every day, spend time on things you don\u2019t like and that make you miserable; say yes to everyone and no to yourself. Squash your intuition and forget about your creativity. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
