Have you ever gone to an awful movie? Would you go back to that awful movie hundreds of times? Of course not. Why? Because it wouldn’t feel good to do this! Then why would you go back to the awful movies in your head on a regular basis? Why watch yourself in your least favorite roles, playing against your least favorite leading lady or man? Why play out business disasters or bad career decisions again and again? Of course, these “B” movies are not limited only to your past experiences. you can focus on something right now that you think you’re missing out on, and feel bad. Better yet, you can focus on something that hasn’t even happened yet, and feel bad about it in advance! Though you may laugh at this now, unfortunately that’s what most of us do day to day.

Great article, fear, I am not good enough, victimization mindset, low self estimate, are some of the reasons why we love play these movies. We love to talk about the things we're complaining about.
