.GIFs of Lain Being Sad

It's easy to put things into perspective and use positive cognitive reframing. It's HARD remembering it and letting it influence your emotions and decisions. I am living the life 16-year-old me worked so hard for and DREAMED of, but since I've reached that goal it's hard to find something else to strive for and motivate me. It's also still so easy to focus on what I don't have. It's so easy to focus on the money, friends, and hours I've lost instead of making more money and new friends and living in the present. 

I'm still mourning my old friends my childhood and the things that should have been different. I can't differentiate living in the past and processing things, which doesn't even matter because I feel guilty doing both. 

I need new goals. New motivators. That feeling of freshness and novelty.
