“I’ve said it before: We spend way too much time railing about the two or three things that we think are “wrong” in our lives and we ignore the fifty to five hundred things that are pretty darn good.”

“The Human part of the brain might very well appreciate this point but the Chimp characteristically doesn’t. Our Chimp needs to be continually reassured. [197] It will vary from person to person but generally there is a need for appreciation and being loved. [198] [199] There is also a need to feel welcomed and wanted. If you feel this way towards any individual it might be worth letting them know. For many, it will be a boost to their self-esteem and a reassurance to their Chimp.”
― Steve Peters, A Path through the Jungle: A Psychological Health and Wellbeing Programme to Develop Robustness and Resilience
