    Truth is better and smarter than my knowing better.
  9. HAPPY: I experience happiness and thankfulness.
    I enjoy the truth, the good thinking that is in me. I am grateful for it.

    I blame my stinking thinking for causing me to have pride, feel bad, and to react poorly to adversity. I refuse to blame human beings.
  11. DEMONIZE THINKING: Helpful damning.
    My self-deifying is driving my self-demonizing which is causing my ego pain. It is stupid and sick to enjoy hurting myself (masochism).
  12. DEMAND THINKING STOP: Helpful demanding.
