5. Schritt Um sofort ins Handeln zu kommen, Stelle dir die Frage: Was kann ich geniales aus dieser Situation machen? Mach dann das beste daraus.

1. Schritt: Entscheide dich ob du Glücklich sein willst oder nicht. Stelle dir dabei die lebenswichtige Frage: Will ich Glücklich sein, oder nicht?

2. Schritt: Mach dein Glück nicht von den Umständen abhängig. Stelle dir dabei die Frage: Will ich Glücklich sein, egal was passiert?

3. Schritt Wenn du mal in einer schwierigen und emotionalen Situation bist (z.B. Partner*in verlässt dich), denke daran was sich großartiges daraus entwickeln kann. Stelle dir die Frage: Was wird sich wohl mit der Zeit großartiges daraus entwickeln?

Vertrau darauf, auch wenn jetzt alles negativ und zu seinen scheint. Es wird sich etwas großartiges daraus entwickeln. Wenn das nicht (gut) klappt, gehe zum 4. Schritt.

4. Schritt Frage dich, warum die jetzt dein Glück abgeben willst. Stelle dir dabei die Frage: Wieso will ich jetzt mein Glück abgeben? Wieso will ich dieser Situation erlauben, mein Glück zu rauben?

Grief is like a moving river, so that's what I mean by it's always changing. It's a strange thing to say because I'm at heart an optimistic person, but I would say in some ways it just gets worse. It's just that the more time that passes, the more you miss someone.
