Today, we’re talking about honking. Honking may seem like a funny or trivial subject, but the truth is, why do we honk at each other while we're driving? Sometimes, we honk to express joy, but most of the time, we honk because we're upset or angry or someone isn't doing what they're supposed to be doing while driving. For instance, I have honked at someone who was on their phone at a stoplight while I was behind them, or when someone cut me off or going too slow.

As a result, we get more of what we don't want, distort things, exaggerate things, or amplify things that we don't necessarily need in our lives. We could focus on being more positive or mindful with how we analyze or even think about situations in our heads. A lot of time as we are. Catastrophizing things in our head that have even happened.
