We tend to feel entitled to the beneficial things in our lives, often prompting us to obligate other people to continue providing them. It's useful to keep mindful of entitlement accroaching and to practice gratitude in order to fight feeling entitled.

We often may dismiss any positives about something by comparing it to an impossible standard. It is useful to question why we have such a high standard, in order to get to enjoy more things.

We often tend to dwell on thoughts about disliking or avoiding a certain conclusion, taking the assumptions that led to the conclusions as granted. So, it is useful to methodically question the validity of assumptions behind meaningful conclusions.

Comparisons are the thief of joy. Not only when comparing ourselves to others, but even to what we have been or what we could have been.

Through thinking that we're not good enough, or that we need to achieve a lot to deserve things, we strengthen that mindset, making it more likely that we're going to continue thinking like that, regardless of improvement or achievements.
