The thoughts you choose
Where your mind lives is where your life is headed. What you think about most willingly, when you have nothing else you must think about, will define the direction of your life.

No matter what may be happening in the world outside of you, you have the power to choose your own thoughts. And the thoughts you choose can have an enormous impact.

When all is quiet, when the necessities of the day have been tended to, when your mind is free of any constraints, what kinds of things do you think about? The thoughts you have at such times, the thoughts you choose to think, are the thoughts that will show you who you truly are.

Steer those thoughts away from anger, limitation, worry and envy. Direct your mind toward thoughts of love, possibility, confidence, abundance and generosity.

Whatever may be going on in the outside world, your mind can live precisely where you choose for it to live. Choose to let it live in an empowering, life-affirming, rich and creative place.

Choosing the life you want begins with choosing the thoughts that will direct you to it. Those thoughts are yours to choose this very moment.

0000ffThat is very true Chris, I also believe in that, but how do you stop the negative thoughts coming in when things are really bad. Have you ever tried to think in a very positive way, but then those rotten negative thoughts come flying in to destroy the positive ones. And why is it that the negative ones are stronger than the positive.IMG src="http:www.spiritualblessing.orgForumsricheditu pload2k8bb028ff7b.gif" border=0

Of course I have. And I know what you mean. Its not easy but it gotta be done. I dont think negative thoughts are stronger than positve but all our life, we've been told to pay attention to whats not working, and thats always been there infrnt of us. People try to make us aware of what isnt working...and thats why we are programmed to think that way. I might be wrong.
