When you allow the negative thoughts that enter your mind to grow and blossom, you are feeding the egos wall of defense. It wants you to stay in the same comfortable discomfort zone that it has established...yet it is not a place to thrive...you must allow the negative thoughts to happen, yet not allow them to take root in your garden...let them float past and observe that they are there for a reason...the reason is the root you seek....acknowlege the root, yet do not attach yourself to this knowledge...love all that you find in yourself and allow yourself to grow...d.cincioni

ReplyDeleteWhen ever we desire something and those negative thoughts begin to create that wall... (not deserving, not smart enough, not successful enough, not rich enough, they'll think this way or that way about me, not thick enough, not thin enough, not enough of enough) It's amazing how much we grow when we step through that uncomfortable mass. It's also amazing how thin that "discomfort zone" really is.
ReplyDeleteThis is so spot on Debra. Negativity is the killer. It kills humanity and personality in many different ways.
ReplyDeleteHi Debra, I really enjoyed your post. I have a trick I use with clients to help them quiet the negative mind chatter. Say "thank you mind for that thought, but I am choosing a different thought now". This puts us in control of the mind and puts it in its place. Great post
