I struggled for years with negative thoughts.

There were times I felt like my own mind was attacking me in a nonstop barrage of terrible thoughts.

Nothing in particular was happening to even justify the thoughts, most of the time, but they just kept coming.

It took years for me to realize that I am super aware and that many thoughts were other people’s and most importantly potential realities and timelines I was aware of.

I remember at one point I would go for daily walks around the block and it took almost all my focus to keep flipping each negative thought.

If I let my mind wander for a second there was another shit thought.

Obviously I didn’t enjoy my walks very much because at the time I believed I had to address and change every unwanted thought I had!

Have you tried that method too?!

It was insane, and thankfully I realized pretty quickly that I don’t have to spend my entire life analyzing, chopping, and reconfiguring each thought I’m aware of.

I want to point out...

Did you know that it's not your job to figure out how you will get something?

Contrary to what many of us were taught; you don’t have to rack your brain trying to figure out every detail of how and when your desire will show up. 

The fastest way to get the things you want is to find ways to feel good now.

I know, how the heck are you supposed to feel good when you’re so stressed out?! 

Well, the key to that is getting your mind on something besides the “problem” you keep focusing on.

Your thoughts and feelings come from the state you are in.

Which is why the old saying goes

“We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." Albert Einstein

 

You may have to force yourself to stop ruminating on the unwanted. And force yourself to get busy cooking, cleaning, do a puzzle, dance or go for a walk. Anything really to get refocused on things that have nothing to do with what’s stressing you out.

Here are 3 ways to stop worrying f...

Being in a crappy thought loop is never fun.

It can feel like you’re being attacked by your own thoughts.

You suddenly can’t stop thinking these terrible thoughts, and the more you push against them the worse they get. 

So why does this happen?

The old saying “what you resist persists” comes to mind.

You have decided, perhaps in an instant, that whatever you were thinking is bad and you need to banish it quickly!

Judgment is at the root of probably all suffering.

You’ve been triggered and now you find yourself judging your thoughts as negative, bad, and scary.

Truth is, nothing has any meaning except what you assign it to mean.

So, if you have decided it is a bad, wrong, terrible thought, you’ve set yourself up for a battle.

If you drop the judgment and start to identify certain thoughts as simply unwanted, you’ll release them so much faster.

Some people teach that you must be positive all the time and think super happy thoughts or you’ll create negative experiences....
