Actionable Insights
1. Accept & Manage Negative Thoughts
Do not criticize yourself for experiencing negative thoughts, as this is a natural function of the human mind; instead, acknowledge your ability to manage and respond to these thoughts.
2. Challenge Social Perceptions
Recognize that discomfort in social situations often stems from your imagination of what others are like, rather than their true selves, and that you often interact with mental constructs rather than real people.
