Your unhelpful thoughts are eating your dreams alive
Your unhelpful thoughts are eating your dreams alive.
Because when we think an unhelpful thought, we take unhelpful action.
It's 11:59pm right now. Fact.
I do not feel like writing. Thought.
Only the first one is true.
The second one is just a sentence I made up in my head.
"I don't feel like writing" isn't going to get me to write. So why am I choosing to think it?
I can just make up a new sentence in my head instead.
It's 11:59pm right now. Fact.
"I'm the kind of person who can push through discomfort for her goals." Thought.
A much more helpful thought.
Because now I am writing.
If I allowed myself to accept the first thought, I would have gone to bed already without following through on my commitment to write.
You get to choose your thoughts.
They're just sentences you make up in your head.
So what thoughts do you need to think to get what you want today?
