Thoughts:
This beautiful day is almost done and I can’t wait to take a nap. It is amazing how easy I forgot the important information when something ‘bad’ happens. If I will be aware at any time of all the things I’m fortune to have, life will be easier. When your attention is on the wrong stuff you will get more of that and when you shift your attention to the right stuff, on the solutions and not only on the problem, you will find what you are looking for. Marisa Peer said it right: all your feelings are caused by two factors, first are the pictures you make in your head (about the stuff that you are going through) and second are the words you say to yourself. Your perspective and you attitude regarding what you facing makes all the difference, choose your response.
Another important thing next: STOP labeling everything bad or good, there are many things between this two poles. More important you don’t know if what happened to you now is bad or wrong, maybe on the long run you will be grateful for how it turn out to be and for the lesson you learn from that.
Notes:
Learn to silence your monologue, so you can pay attention on what is in front of you, and what this world has to offer.
The only love you are craving for is yours
Before doing anything ask yourself these questions and if the answer is yes to all of them you will feel empowered to do the task ahead:
1) Can you do it? Are you capable of accomplishing it? (training question)
2) Will it work? Why this might work? (education question)
3) Is it worsted? (motivational question)
4 things to know in order to collaborate with your mind by Marisa Peer:
1) Your mind does what it thinks you want (want your best interested). If you are not getting what you want then you are not collaborating with your mind properly.
2) Your mind is hard wired to move towards pleasure and avoid pain.
3) All your feelings are down to two things. First the pictures you make in your head and second the words you say to yourself.
4) Your mind loves what is familiar. If you want to succeed you have to make what is familiar unfamiliar and vice versa.
