I have just been reading ‘What to say When you Talk to Yourself’ by Shad Helmstetter and thought some of you might be interested in this (those who don’t already have the book that is!).
Basically it teaches ‘what you think – so you shall be’ (and god we are all thinkers on here aren’t we?!! LOL)
It is all about replacing those negative thoughts with good, positive thoughts, the new thoughts being based in the present, and assuming that the changes have already taken place. This is then apparently teaching your mind what you want yourself to become. These are the examples from the book which are all aimed specifically at ‘Freedom from Worry’. You need to keep reading these to yourself daily – or failing that record yourself saying them and play the tape while you’re getting ready for work etc. You may not be aware of listening to it, but your unconscious mind will be!
I do not worry. I am in control of my thinking and I think only those thoughts which create and fulfil the best in me.
My mind is constantly in tune with the positive. It is bright, cheerful, enthusiastic, and full of good, positive thoughts and ideas.
I am able to relax easily and comfortably in my body and in my mind. I am calm, confident, and self-assured.
My mind is orderly and well organized. I consciously choose what I think and I always choose those thoughts which are the most positive and beneficial for me.
All of thoughts create healthiness within me.
My mind dwells only on those thoughts which create more harmony, balance, and well being within me and in the world around me.
I automatically, and always, think in a decisive and determined way.
I am full of resolution and the absolute assurance of the best possible outcome in everything that I do.
I choose to look at the world around me in the bright, healthy light of optimism and self-assurance.
I do only those things which are best for me. I create the best within myself, I attract the best in others, and I find the best in the world around me.
I willingly, and without fail, take care of the duties and obligations which I have accepted for myself.
I commit only to those responsibilities which I know I can fulfil.
I focus the attention of my mind only on those things that I can do something about. If I cannot affect it or direct it – I accept it.
I keep my mind too busy thinking good, healthy, positive, constructive, and productive thoughts to ever have any time for worry.
I control the thoughts I choose. No thought, at any time, can dwell in my mind without my approval or permission.
I never worry!
I hope this can help someone on here – I’m planning on having a good go at it myself. I know there is only one thing keeping me in the state I am in and that is me, my thoughts and my fears!
Take care all
