Despair is common to all humans but most do not understand its mechanics.
Despair is a conclusion which you may not realize you’ve chosen. It is believing you KNOW, with great certainty, what happens NEXT or what happens FINALLY.
None but God can truly see the future. DespaIr is the combination of fortune telling and catastrophizing about what you THINK will or will not happen.
Challenge your negativity bias about the future and you’re well on your way to tackling the cognitive construct of despair; and it is a cognition NOT an emotion.
What erroneous conclusions do you need to tackle today?
