Yeah -- that doesn't sound like a fun game to me, either!
I'm so sorry that you're feeling bad right now, TiffyLove. And I won't suggest that you "snap out of it" -- the old "Buck up!" line of advice just doesn't cut it, does it? Although it does makes me laugh, it's so ubiquitous and so ineffective.
It's great that you express all this so you can hear it outside the bones of your head, and so can we. As a person outside the bones of your head (but not really
), I can see you the downward spiral of your bad feeling thoughts, and how you nurture your limiting beliefs (I call it "feeding the gremlin.") And I acknowledge you for opening yourself up to feedback from people like me -- that really takes something! You are taking steps, and even though it may feel like those steps take you in circles, you can be glad, if you like, that you are able to take steps at all. If you can walk in circles, that means you can also step into a different direction, too. Congratulations!
There are scads of techniques and methods that we can recommend to you in getting yourself where you want to go. And the one bedrock that experience has shown me is the very heart of getting results is: be at cause in your life -- take on 100% responsibility for generating a life you're in love with. Recognize that you have the power to deliberately think thoughts that feel good when you think them. Notice that "the universe" is not some force outside yourself that toys with you against your will -- the universe is you, and it is your own conscious and unconscious choices that have led you to this point here, right now.
So, what are you willing to do about it? Are you willing to take on 100% responsibility? Or would you prefer to continue living at the effect of forces outside yourself?
You get to choose, and whatever choice you make is valid.
