If you save money regularly, you’ll quickly find that your savings add up and keep growing. Get into the habit and watch your money turn into more money.
You may find that you hone in on the negative aspects of a situation as the first thing you do, ignoring or dismissing all the positive aspects. Instead, consider the whole picture. Find a more balanced way to look at this situation.
Making unfair comparisons between certain individuals and yourself is a common thinking error, and can leave you feeling inadequate. When you do this, you compare yourself with people who you know have a specific advantage over you in some area.
If you talk to your sibling about how you’re feeling, use “I” phrases such as “I feel frustrated that you…”, so you don’t lay blame and put them on the defensive.
Talking about why you’re frustrated with your sibling can help you gain some insight on the situation, help them understand where you’re coming from, and can give you a chance to hear their side of the story.
If you have exams in the near future, learn in advance how to relax. This will help you feel confident that, if you start to panic or your mind goes blank, you will be able to regain control.
Pick out the exam questions that best relate to the revision you have done. Taking time at this point can gain a better result. If you can’t decide all the questions you want to answer, start with those you have picked and come back to the others later.
Problems are a normal part of life, and we usually feel better when we do something to resolve them rather than just dwell on them. If you can’t solve the problem, change the way you think about it. You can practice acceptance and move on with life in a positive way.
One way to deal with situations you can’t change is to practice acceptance. This means accepting the way things are without insisting that they should be different, and deciding to get on with life in spite of the situation.
Before you react to something your sibling has said or done, take a deep breath and think about the situation. Maybe you’re angry at your sibling or frustrated by a bigger underlying issue.
