Wow, where do we start with this one.
There are those thousands of thoughts coming to us every moment of every day. Good thoughts, bad thoughts, thoughts about our kids, our parents, our environment, our work, bills, and of course there’s all those thoughts about taking some time for ourselves. Where does it stop! It doesn’t. Our brains will continue to do it’s job and emit thoughts every minute of our lives. Those thoughts can be positive or negative you have control over the way you think.
Some people are not even aware of their thoughts. It just automatic from thought to mouth, usually taking a direct route. Some think and ponder their thoughts and then choose what they will do with their thoughts share, not share, act, not act.
It’s not always thoughts about others; often it’s thoughts about ourselves that seem to be negative. Why is that? We have lived with ourselves for our entire life. No one knows us better than ourselves. We’ve seen ourselves change and grow, and grow. We’ve been growing everyday of our life, check the size of your ears.
The wise always speak about keeping our thoughts positive. They say, positive thoughts produce positive results. Negative thinking produces negative feeling and more negative thoughts.
It’s time to do a reality check on our thoughts. This month we invite Personal Growth Sheet Participants to do just that. Describe what your current thoughts are about yourself, your partner, kids etc. You may need a notebook. Then explore these thoughts, are they negative, has this been long term thinking, do you want to think differently?
Next we explore ways to turn those negatives into positives. There are a number of ways to help you change your thinking. Practice affirmations, listen to positive CD’s, and remove negativity as much as possible. Try saying yes as much as possible or simply try changing your perspective.
Our thoughts form our reality. If they are negative and you want to change them, go ahead, you have the power. Explore what it would be like to think only positive thoughts about the people and your surroundings? It will feel good, you might really like it.
