Try to get very specific about the things you don't want in your life.

Instead of "that asshole of a boss," what's more useful is "he does these specific behaviors," or "has these particular personality traits," or "these particular ways of communicating that just do not work with my brain." 1/2

The more specific you can get, the more useful the information is. Vague bad feelings are hard to navigate toward or away from. Specific ones give you something to work with.
