If you make a point of being nice to people and yourself in your thoughts and actions, you will drop your most destructive habits. If you want to learn to think nicely, you start by noticing your negative judgements of people and yourself. As you notice yourself thinking unkind things, you can just remind yourself, that’s not nice. With practice it gets easier. When your thoughts are trained to be nice, then you don’t worry about your actions. Until your thoughts become nice, your kind actions can quarantine your unkind thoughts so they won’t spread to others. — zenmister
