All disturbing emotions such as feelings of sadness, anger, worry about something not going according to our expectations all come from the way we process and respond to information that enters our minds. Negative emotions arise due to wrong thinking or judgment. All conditions that occur in our lives are neutral. Conditions can be positive or negative, it all depends on how we think about receiving incoming information and how we respond to that information.
Remembering a story about two friends, let's call them Bejo and Tejo, they were both classmates at a well-known private school in an area. Bejo is someone who doesn't really stand out in class, his grades are mediocre, while Tejo is someone who is quite an achiever in class, always in the top three class rankings, both of them have the same economic background. When the class exam is about to arrive, Tejo is always tense when the exam approaches. It's different with Bejo, he is always calm when facing class exams, even though he often repeats exams because he didn't pass his first exam, this doesn't mean Bejo is lazy, he is someone who is diligent and diligent when studying in class, it's just that perhaps fate is not on his side. Once upon a time a mathematics exam was about to be held by the homeroom teacher. Bejo and Tejo immediately prepared themselves to face the exam the next day. The next day the two of them took the exam seriously, the next day the exam results were announced by the homeroom teacher, for some reason that day Bejo and Tejo got scores below the passing standard. Because Bejo was used to repeating exams, he considered it normal and returned to focusing on preparing himself for the repeat exam. Meanwhile, Tejo, because he was not used to this condition, felt very depressed, he was confused about how to explain it to his parents at home. Si Tejo thought this was a big disaster for him, he couldn't control himself, all the way to the house he imagined the response of his parents who were like monsters amidst the roar of a thunderstorm. When he got home, Tejo delivered his test results to his parents, unexpectedly the response of his parents was the opposite of what Tejo thought, his father just smiled and said "I never asked you to be perfect, my son, it's enough for you to be a child who makes me proud. "All this time, now go to your room, change your clothes and we'll have dinner together."
How big an influence our thoughts have on our emotional condition. Life comes from within humans, disturbing emotions, conditions created both good and bad all originate from within humans. Control your thoughts and you can control your life.
