The first step on your road to
happiness is to get clear about what weighs you down. You have been used to
perpetuating your thoughts around old hardship or painful circumstances. You
have defined yourself and created your state of being based on those old
memories. While your life goes forward, you have been stuck in the past.
Remember, the past is only an idea in your Mind. It does not exist anywhere
else. Over the next while pay attention to your thoughts and stop yourself from
perpetuating any negative feelings. Whenever you notice a negative thought
taking over, use one of the following simple methods:
-- The “Stop!” mind technique: shout
loudly in your Mind “Stop!” whenever a negative thought is coming.
-- The “Elastic Band” method. Just
put an elastic band on your wrist for a week, and snap it firmly any time you
feel negative thoughts coming. It helps! These methods are very effective as
they are based on the Pavlov’s “conditioned
reflex”. They will help you to decrease, or even completely eliminate negative
thinking. Have fun! J
