What's the Point?

This is a question we've all asked ourselves. What's the point of getting up? What's the point of trying? What's the point of living? and so on...

Although it's a common question, it's also a very destructive one. It implies that there is no point in trying, living, etc, and therefore we should give up. This is very detrimental to our mental health and makes it easy to sink into a depression when we can't be bothered doing anything.

The answer to the question is that there is always a point...You are alive, you have something to give to others, you can create your own fulfilling life.

When such negative questions come into your mind, replace them with positive words, such as:

• I will try...
• I will help...
• I will take one small step forward...

This kind of motivating self-talk will help you to move forward. No matter how small the step, it is important to move forward if you want to improve your life every day.
