Controlling Our Thoughts



"The outer conditions of a person's life will always be found to reflect their inner beliefs". We spend approximately 85% of our time each day in self talk or what we think of as "private thoughts". Looking at our lives and reviewing our thoughts we realize that our thoughts are really not just idle talk. If we take the time to look at our lives, we will see that we are living the exact life that we spent most of our time thinking about. The thoughts we have that are highly emotionalized effect our lives even more.

Not only are our lives controlled by our thoughts our world is also. It is apparent what the world's thoughts are by listening to what your friends are talking about, what you read in the news, and what we see on TV. If we control our personal thoughts no matter what the thoughts of the world and our personal environment, we will not be affected as others are. If your thoughts and life are filled with love and happiness you may not even be aware of troubled times all around you, because it will not be attracted to you.

When a person takes total responsibility for his thoughts and his life, his environment will change to a life of unlimited freedom. When you can move beyond your past and your mistakes, real or imagined, you realize you have only the present. Why would you want to spend another second thinking of something you can not do anything about?

How can a person control there thoughts while they are talking to themselves? That is where having setting goals will make a difference. When you set goals you also have some affirmations to reach your goals. It is also important to have some affirmations for your personal well being. Another great affirmation is prayer. It is imperative to watch and monitor your thoughts in order to have the kind of life that you want.

When we do our best to control our thoughts we change our life in more ways than is apparent. When you use affirmations to help keep negative thoughts out of your "self talk" and put emotion with the affirmation it can and will change your attitude throughout the day. When you are facing the day with a great attitude everything and everyone in your life will also feel your positive energy and be affected. Pick some wonderful "self talk" and affirmations and have more good days than bad.

Why not let your dreams take control of your life and have one joyous experience after another while bringing some happiness into all the lives you touch. Of course, it will not happen overnight, although, if you do not start nothing will ever happen. Why miss all the fun!!

  1. This has probably been mentioned before but there's only one way to accomplish such a feat as control over one's thoughts: meditation.
