Know Yourself
There is one person who lives with us forever, and that person is ourselves - the self. Confucius once said, "Those who know themselves are wise, and those who know others are wise." Only by understanding ourselves and accepting ourselves can we be happy and healthy. By understanding our strengths, we will be clear about our development direction; By understanding our own shortcomings, we can make fewer mistakes and avoid doing things that we cannot do.
Face reality
We may not have been born into a wealthy family; Our work may not be satisfactory either; Our lovers may not be shrewd or considerate; Our children may not all be intelligent and obedient; "We may also be experiencing setbacks and tribulations... However, we only have the possibility of change if we first face up to all this and accept it.". Only by recognizing the reality, accepting it, and being down-to-earth can we achieve greater results.
Be kind to others
People live in a society composed of others, just as fish live in water. Without others and their help, people cannot survive. According to psychologists, about 80% of life's troubles are related to their interpersonal environment. Finding fault with others, being prone to anger at others, infringing on others' interests, and not paying attention to interpersonal relationships will bring endless troubles to oneself.
Assume responsibility
Except for babies in swaddling clothes, everyone has their own responsibilities and jobs. Children should respect their parents and do what they can. Adults should bear the burden of family and society, obtain means of livelihood, recognition, and fun in their work. Therefore, the impact of unemployment on adults is not only economic, but also psychological. It can cause people to lose their sense of value and bring about psychological crisis. A truly mature and healthy person is one who can bravely assume responsibility and enjoy work.
Famous Italian painter Da? Finch said, "One day's work brings one night's sleep; one lifetime of hard work brings one a long and happy sleep.". Avoiding responsibility and work can only make people feel irritable and regretful.
Control emotions
Emotion plays an important role in mental health. People with mental health often maintain a happy, cheerful, confident, and satisfied mood, are good at seeking pleasure from life, and are full of hope for life. On the contrary, frequent depression, anger, anxiety, jealousy, etc. are signs of mental health. When a person is psychologically healthy, his emotions are appropriately expressed, his demeanor is generous, and he is neither formal nor presumptuous.
Shaping personality
Personality is the sum of all stable psychological characteristics of a person. The ultimate goal of mental health is to maintain the integrity of personality and cultivate a healthy personality. There is an Indian proverb that says: Attitude determines behavior, behavior determines habits, habits determine personality, and personality determines destiny. Our character and destiny are precisely shaped by our own actions at every moment.
Have a family and a job
Home and career are the sources of responsibility and stress for adult men. Family harmony and career success are by no means incompatible, and their relationship is mutually reinforcing. "The family and everything prosper," and they are unable to "unify the family," I am afraid they are also unable to "stabilize the world.". When dealing with the relationship between the two, one should have a healthy mindset.
Take it in a proper way
"A gentleman is fond of wealth and takes it in a proper way." On the one hand, it is fair and aboveboard to increase income, and on the other hand, it can be said to treat his own selfish desires with a healthy attitude. In addition to jealousy and jealousy, treat the temptation in the colorful world with a normal heart. God always gives opportunities to those who work hard.
A warm reminder from the editor of the Psychological Channel: The above mentioned eight standards for male mental health. The so-called male health does not only refer to the physical health of men, but the most important thing is to be mentally healthy. With a healthy psychology, one can have a better body and become a truly healthy person.
