I went through this some number of years back...and I found a real deal cure. It sounded silly to me...but I still do it.
Get a small notepad and keep it with you at all times. Do something nice for someone then put a mark in it...ya know...four marks then a cross to make it five...that sort of thing. Hold a door open for someone...and put a mark in it. Let someone in a snarled traffic spot...put a mark in the book. Make the checkout kid smile at the supermarket...put a mark in the book.
I GUARANTEE that when you run out of space and need another book...you will feel like a new person. You will definitely NOT hate yourself...because it just isn't reasonable to not like "you".
Silly??? Yeah. So what....
