The Need for Choosing Good Thoughts

Today I invite you to think about the necessity of choosing good thoughts. Depending on the research studies you review, it is estimated that during the course of one single day we have somewhere between 15,000 to 60,000 thoughts. The fact is many of these thoughts "fly under our radar". These same studies would suggest that of those 15,000-60,000 thoughts close to 80% are negative in some way or form. Wow! Think about that for a moment. If we do in fact have 60,000 thoughts per day that would mean 48,000 would surface in some negative form. STOP right now. What is the first thing going through your mind? Is it, this is silly, Who cares, I love chocolate, I hate my job, Work is amazing, I feel fat, I wish I had more money... the list could go on. Be honest with yourself. No one has to know what the first thing that came to your mind was... but it is interesting isn't it. Now think about your current experience with work. Do the thoughts and experiences line up. If you are honest with yourself you will find they always do.

The point here is simple. What we feed our minds- in the form of thoughts, words, images, feelings ,moods, etcetera creates our self-image and is likely going to be reflected in our experience of our life, day-by-day. Given this framework it is very easy to see the connection between negative thoughts and negative outcomes.

By now, almost everyone on the planet has at least heard about the Law of attraction. In very simple form it indicates that what you focus on you receive, no exclusions. What you focus on you receive. That is simple, right? Well... in many ways it is simple. Stop focusing on the negative. Change any negatives to positives. Work on seeing the good versus the bad or ugly. All simple suggestions, but ones that take conscious effort! The trick here is being consistent, or least increasing the consistency with which you choose to have good thoughts whether they are related to work, wealth, relationships, health, abundance, career, or anything else that is important in your life.

I would bet that everyone reading this posting would have at least one experience where they not only fed their minds good thoughts but that the outcome very shortly thereafter was positive. It is not a coincidence that when you feel happy, you also experience other happy people. When you feel good about yourself others respond to you in more favourable ways. This is the Law of Attraction at work, quietly, consistently, and methodically bringing forth exactly what you are focusing on. No questions, no effort, no strain. This is really the secret isn't it.

That's it for today.

Remember the need for choosing good thoughts!

Cheers.
