What do you do if those old, familiar, dark thoughts threaten to  haunt you by popping into your mind? What if those cruddy, crusty thoughts pop into your head more than you even want? What if, worst of all, you don't even know of another way to be? If you've never learned how to work with your thought environment, here is a game plan.

Flood your mind with the kind of thoughts you want. What  are the thoughts you really want swimming in your awareness? Do you want thoughts that are positive? Then PLAN for the positive thoughts you want. 
Positive landslides anchor new notions.
P                  = Positive
L             = Landslides
A                    = Anchor
N        = New Notions
Take the time right now to plan the new thoughts that you want to invite and promote into your mind. That means that the next time  you catch yourself thinking negatively, you jump on the chance to flood your mind with the positive thoughts.

One of the thoughts I personally use is the attitude of gratitude. It's my first "go to" thought process when I feel stuck or down. But don't stop there. 

  • What other positive thoughts can you flood into your mind? 
  • Make a real list. 
  • Write that list down.
  • Put it where you can find it easily.
  • When you catch yourself in "stinking thinking" go get your list out and take action.
Is this going to be easy? Maybe not at first. If you have a lifetime of reinforcing negative thinking, then positive, healthy thoughts may not feel very natural or even very comfortable to you. But, if you are sick and tired of being sick and tired, this is a real action that you can take right now to step into the life you would love to be living.

You can do this!
Love,
Aunt Laya

What would you do if you were 100% responsible for your own life? What would you do differently? What would you do more of and what would you let go of?

You can ask someone to coach you, read books, learn from other people's experiences, but the bottom line is that you get to create your life! Isn't that amazing? You've got the power!

"The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny."--Albert Ellis Love,
