The "it will be better when" trap. In other words, life will be better in the future when something else happens. I have fallen in to this trap many times throughout my life, and often it has happened to me while playing competitive video games. Often I would have the thought that it would be better when we won, or if I was having a bad game, it would be better as soon as it was over. I would never tell myself that the outcome wasn't important. What was important was whether or not I was having fun with my friends, or getting better at the game. Today, I am talking to you as I play a game called League of Legends, a game I have struggled to practice the principle I am sharing with you today. I hope you enjoy this power thought, and I appreciate your feedback!
