Only one thought at a time - Make it positive!



         




Can you see the Young Woman?

Bet you can't see them both at the same time.

How about Thoughts and feelings at the same time?

Our minds cannot think of two thoughts simultaneously. It physically cannot be done.
For example, you cannot think about picking your daughter up from a soccer game and what to fix for dinner at the same time. The reality is your mind is switching back and forth between the two very dissimilar thoughts. You might feel that they are inter-related (your daughter will be hungry when she gets home) and that you are thinking two different thoughts.

But consider this: your feelings follow your thoughts and you cannot physically feel more than one feeling at a time.

You cannot be happy and sad at the same time. You cannot be loving and angry at the same time. It simply cannot be done.
It may feel like you are thinking more than one thought or feeling more than one feeling at a time … in fact, sometimes it feels like millions – doesn’t it?

Your feelings follow your thoughts. So if you think it, chances are good that you’ll feel it. And sometimes your feelings will lead you to do something that’s self destructive or bad for you.

But, here’s the good newsYou can shift this pattern by hitting the “stop” button as soon as you think the thought. You can put on the brakes before your thought turns into a feeling which turns into a reaction which starts the downward spiral of self-destruction.

In the beginning it may be difficult to “catch” the thought before it becomes a feeling. But with practice you will soon recognize when your brain is going someplace you’d rather not be.
You will begin to find your “reset” button and when a negative thought crops up, you can rewind your thoughts to something positive, fun and loving. When you do this often enough, your old habitual patterns will dissolve and your new way of thinking will create new patterns of behavior.

Why not just do it?

Do You talk to yourself?????


Do you talk to yourself?

Did you know the human brain averages 65,000 thoughts a day?




And most people have the same 65,000 thoughts the next day. Here's something else to chew on. Brain scientists determined there is a portion of our brain called the "Reticular Activating System". It's a fancy term for software in our head which focuses our attention on what you ask it to.

Example: Quickly look around you and count how many blue objects you can see. Without looking again tell me...how many red objects did you see? My guess is you counted the blue...and you drew a blank with the reds.

This is an experiment that helps prove if someone is focused on failure...the brain starts showing them more failure. So if people aren't changing their thoughts...their brain is pulling them towards the same thing day in and day out. A big success secret is learning how to control your thoughts.

Manage the little voice in your head with positives.

Elephants Don't Bite



It's not the big things that get you.
It's the little things. The Gnats, Mosquitoes, and no see'um.
So...

If you are not taking a look at the small details, you could be doing yourself a dis-service.

Have you noticed lately how you smile or don’t smile? Your tone of voice, charged up or charged down? The first impression you make with your style of clothing? How you greet people—the handshake, saying their name or introducing yourself? Remembering their face or the last time you talked?

All important and yet small details. However, these small details define you, your personal brand, your ability to create and build relationships and ultimately your success!

If you don’t:
1. have the business success you want
2. have the network you want
3. have the clients/customers you want
4. have the friends you want
5. have the support/resource system you want
6. have the financial success you want

it may be because you are not taking care of the small details. Many entrepreneurs hate to deal with the small details and this is their downfall. You must remember what Darrell Royal said, “you gotta dance with who brung ya.” And, it’s usually the small steps, the small details, the nuances of body language.

Now is the time to focus and be a better you.
