Whether you will recall positive moments more often, or more bad things will remain in your memory, depends on your attitude towards life in general and towards yourself in particular. Be optimistic and forget about the negative.
Positive attitude
Surely you yourself guess that people with a positive outlook on life are less prone to difficult memories of not the best moments in their past life. If you also want to enjoy only the good moments that once took place, do some work on yourself.
Concentrate on the positive. Make a list of your victories and add them regularly. Give no room for bad thoughts. Muffle them with active perception of the surrounding reality, work or meditation. If there was some kind of tragedy in the past, protect yourself from those things that may remind you of it.
Remember more often what gives you a feeling of joy, warmth, affection, pride and love. Try to reproduce your feelings from the past as closely as possible. Review photos from your travels, look at your own childhood pictures.
If you have some unpleasant thought about your past, urgently find an antidote for it. Defeat her with some kind of positive, joyful memory. When you are reminded of yourself by some mistake you made a few years ago, think about your achievement, which took place around the same period of your life.
Remember that people are not unambiguously good or bad. And their actions are also different, like the events that happen to individuals. It's up to you and choose what kind of memories you live with.
Order in life
Think about what is stopping you from enjoying life right now. Maybe you have some problems. Then you need to deal with them. If there is nothing you can do, let go of the situation and focus on something else. When you are dissatisfied with the reality around you, your mind can aggravate the situation and slip you not the most pleasant memories, as if proving that life has failed.
Therefore, it is important to put things in order in your life. Then you will remember the bad things less. Everything will be ok. The look at past mistakes will change. After all, you will see that all the events that happened in the past eventually led to a positive result.
Attitude to yourself
How you feel about yourself is also important. If you love, respect, value yourself, and believe in your own strength, you can easily forgive yourself for past wrongs. You will not torment yourself with unpleasant thoughts and will only enjoy the best moments in your life.
People who don't feel good about themselves tend to fall into self-pity. With a kind of masochistic satisfaction, they mentally relive over and over again the painful moments that took place in the past. Such an occupation cannot lead to anything good. On the contrary, you need to strengthen your will, be above circumstances and feel confident that you can cope with almost any misfortune. Perceive yourself as a strong person, and the desire to remember the bad will go away.
