Positive Thoughts: Remapping Reality

So far, I have talked a lot about our mind and thoughts. I assure you it is for a reason.

People have discovered that our thoughts can change the physicality of the mind. Scientists have made profound discoveries about the brain and continue to do so all the time.

From birth til now, the brain has created roadways in your head. We call this our “autopilot.” Our thoughts are the cars driving these roadways. We either get where we are heading or drive like a reckless maniac. The way we stay on the path is to keep our thoughts positive. Make sure we are always steering in the right direction. The brain has its own GPS, but we have to drive the car. Do not be a crappy driver.

Our “autopilot” behaviors happen without even thinking about them. We use words in the same way, good or bad. If we use powerful words to keep us confident, they will soon happen on autopilot. This isn’t some woo woo mantra to repeat, but a new way of being.

As I said with the car example, always be steering your brain to the destination. Become mindful in the discussion going on in your head. Keep the chatter upbeat, forgiving, and confident, regardless of the outcome. This is going to take being proactive with your thoughts. Work hard to progressively change your thought process.

The goal from now on is to always have thoughts that can get you closer to your goals, never further away. When we view problems as opportunities, we want to complete them. We begin creating the life we want. The control is back in our hands. Reality is being dictated by us, not how we perceive it from others. You have seen people become successful before right? What type of mindset do you think they have? These people have cultivated a reality in which the sky is the limit. Yes, it has been said many times, but the truth is this stuff works. When you take time to be proactive towards something beneficial, good things happen.

No matter what you are going through now, it is all about your perception. An obstacle is only as good or bad as we frame it in our mind. The energy must always be coming from within regardless of the chaos from the outside.

The energy you use in every task you perform needs to come from this new reality. The one we have created through positive thoughts. We are a beacon of good vibes both in our own heads and to others. The new reality is our new home. Embrace the feeling that comes with it. I have said many times in this series, you can look at problems as detriments or opportunities. When we have a good conversation going on in our heads, we will gravitate to look for solutions. The will to learn increases and our experiences become better. Feelings of aggravation fall away as we become relaxed from the things we can not control. It is not good or bad anymore, only what’s happening, how to frame it in the positive, and what we can learn from it.
