In this article I would like to show you how you can change the thoughts that dominate your life. You are going to learn a powerful way to change your life just by concentrating on your thoughts.
Before seeing this way to change your life, I invite you to see the powerful testimony of this man before he died:
What is a thought?
A thought, in its basic form, is an electrical impulse generated by neurons in the brain to produce some kind of feeling or action within you. These impulses can be triggered by the 5 senses. Also, a thought is generated by the memories of what you have seen, heard, smelled, touched and tasted.
About thinking.
You will realize, if you pay attention, that most of our thoughts are repetitive in nature, we have the same thoughts day after day: I have to go to work, how can I make the boss happy with me? How can I be happy? What will they think of me? How can I make my partner happier? I can't do that , I would have liked to be more like them, how can I spend more time with my family? …………….
Since our thoughts are mostly repetitions, it is difficult to break this circle.
Therefore, if one of your repetitive thoughts is: "I am not good"What do you think will happen? Your brain will focus on presenting you with evidence to support what you are thinking repeatedly. If you think that you're not good at math, you will find evidence to support this idea. You will remember all those frustrations you felt when you did the math tasks that were entrusted to you.
The power that you have inside
The power you have within you is the following:
If the original thinking is reversed and you start to think that you are good at math, the goblin that lives in your head will scratch his head a bit and say to his neurons, "Guys, we have to find proof that we are good at math. and you will begin to remember the moment when the equations came out the first time, you will remember your passes in that subject and you will remember how you explained to your classmate how to do an exercise.
Suddenly, something wonderful happens. The good thoughts you have about being good at math will increase your motivation to be good at math, which in turn will increase your positive feelings about the subject and provide you with more evidence to show how good you are at math.
Thoughts and their reality
You will notice that in the example above, your thoughts of self-worth come from past experiences and memories. However, your ego comes into play when you subscribe to such ideas. If you feel sorry for yourself when you say "I'm not good at…… .." it is your self-esteem that suffers.
When your self esteem sticks to every thought you have, and most of the time it does, your reality destabilizes, because your reality becomes what you think about day to day. When you detach yourself from your thoughts, your reality changes because you see the bigger picture.
Of course it is not easy to let go of all your thoughts without the necessary practice, but you can start over and observe what thoughts are those that take you downhill. If you have thoughts that make you feel miserable and make you think that you are not good at social situations, start looking for evidence to prove that you are good at relating to others.
If you can not Finding no proof at all, which is unlikely, then you can do the following: accept that this feeling you have is relegated from your priority list, and separate any negative thoughts about it.
As you accept and separate, there is a sense of relief. Now you can choose think good things about others or about yourself and find evidence to support those thoughts. Do this every day of your life and your thoughts and your life will start to change drastically. If you think it is hard work, remember that you have been doing this every day of your life up to this point, this moment when you are choosing what to think.
What do you think about this? Never better said 😀
