Do You Remember The Good Times More, Or The Bad Times More?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Sierra Vista, AZ

I know I have been a good guy countless times, not that I can give a single example now. 🤠. But, I can remember the handful of times I was the bad guy like it was yesterday. Is that the norm?

I miss the good times, but I tend to focus more on what is coming in the future.

I think we remember peaks and valleys more than we remember the "in-betweens". I know that I tend to remember successes and failures more clearly than other things. I try to consider what I have learned from the failures when those memories pop up and celebrate the successes as much as possible. At the end of the day, I am frequently heard saying ... "Perfection is a Goal not a Reality" :)

@A myHIVteam Member I’ve learned to accept the extreme passing thoughts. It’s like watching a river flowing by. Thoughts go by like leaves. If something unsavory passes by, I try to look away and let it float by. No need to swim after it. That’s my personal little mind game. 😊

We are sooooo hard on ourselves when if it was someone we loved we'd give them more of a break. We are humans and not perfect ...and to what standard are we holding ourselves up to? Tomorrow is another day! Don't keep score
