Self-healing copywriting short sentences

Those self-healing copywritings that are as short as one or two sentences are not meant to give you chicken soup or give you chicken blood. They are a "temporary band-aid" for your emotions. They do not need to have any profound connotations or solve actual problems. As long as they can catch your collapse, anxiety, and self-doubt at the moment, it has completed its entire mission.

I didn’t believe in this before, and I even followed the opinions on the Internet and thought that such short sentences were “spiritual opium.” After reading the plans that should be changed, I still have to change them, and I still have to pay off the mortgage that should be paid. It has no practical effect at all. Until last winter, when I was working on deadlines for three projects, I stayed up for five days in a row. I took the subway for three stops after work. When I realized what I was doing, I was the only one left on the platform. The wind came in from the exit and it was bitingly cold. I took out my phone and wanted to send a message to my friend "I'm so tired." I swiped the phone first. When I came to the sentence that I had casually saved before, "Let's get here today and do the rest tomorrow", my nose felt sore on the spot, and I didn't cry. I suddenly relaxed and didn't want to change my plan when I went back. I went to the roadside and bought a roasted sweet potato. When I held it and gnawed it, I didn't feel that it was so difficult.

You see, it did not help me change my plan, nor did it make my deadline disappear, but it brought me back to the moment where I had slipped to the point of "Am I really incompetent, should I just resign?" and brought me back to the moment of "Eat a sweet potato first, then talk about it later." That's enough.

I talked about this with a friend who works in psychological counseling before. She also said that many people have misunderstandings about self-healing. They think that you have to sit down and meditate for dozens of minutes or read an entire psychology book before it can be called healing. In fact, it is not. From the perspective of cognitive behavioral therapy, these sentences that are as short as a few words are actually the most convenient "cognitive dissociation tools" - when you are trapped in the negative cognition of "I can't do anything well," a sentence of "I just didn't do this well, it's not that I am a bad person" can quickly separate you from your negative identity labels and prevent you from getting deeper into emotional infighting. Of course, many researchers do not approve of this method. They feel that short-term emotional buffering will make people avoid real problems and prolong the cycle of resolving conflicts. This is correct, but for most ordinary people who are about to be overwhelmed by emotions, it is better to stand firm first and then solve the problem than to fall directly into the mud.

The little girl next to my previous workstation wrote all kinds of strange short sentences on post-it notes and posted them all over the workstation fender, such as "It's just a part-time job, don't work hard" and "If you make a mistake, correct it and make it again next time." The male colleague next to her even laughed at her and said that these are things only elementary school students believe. As a result, something went wrong in the big project he was responsible for last month, and he was scolded by the boss for half an hour. He squatted in the corner of the corridor and smoked. When I passed by, I saw the little girl handed him a sticky note. It said, "If you lose, you lose. The worst thing is to find a new place to practice again."

I have dozens of these short sentences saved in my mobile phone memo, all based on different scenarios. They are not the stereotyped "You are the best" or "Come on" like those on the Internet. They are all very down-to-earth. When I feel aggrieved after an argument with my parents, I just pull them out and read, "Their expectations are their issues, and I don't need to pay for their regrets."」； When I couldn't help but eat hot pot to lose weight and felt so guilty, I turned to my phone and said, "You have worked very hard, what's wrong with having a good meal?"」 ； There are even times when I had an argument with someone and I didn't perform well. When I got home and was so angry that I couldn't sleep, I recited "The other person is an idiot, and I don't want to get angry with idiots." It's a bit rough, but it's really useful.

There is really no need to deliberately collect those "healing quotes" compiled by others. No matter how good other people's sentences are, they are not as useful as your own words that came out in a sudden thought. Even if you were so emo that day that you just wanted to say "fuck it", as long as this sentence can change your tone at that time, it is the best self-healing copywriting for you.
