Stand guard at the door of your mind


Be careful of your self-talk. Without monitoring your mind and your mouth, the majority of what you say to yourself can poison your attitude; weaken your spirit; and drain your energy. Les Brown

Stand guard at the door of your mind! Most times we beat up ourselves the most! The words, the self chatter you are the first to hear.  What are you telling yourself on a daily basis? What are you feeding your mind? Who and what is being let in the door?

I didn’t understand at first when I first heard that a mind is a terrible thing to waste, but now it is clear to me. What I feed my mind manifests in my life, it really is that simple. And it starts with me, what do I call myself, what do I say about myself? And then it follows on to who and what I let in. We are that powerful, we have the choice to decide who gets time and space in our life and in our mind

Me, I personally refuse to be around the negative vibes, I choose to flood my mind with positive vibes right through, all day every day be it music, what I read, what I watch on TV what conversation  I hold. I am standing guard at the door of my mind.

It’s like what you eat, if you eat junk you will not be healthy, similar concept!

So what did I learn today?

Turn off and banish the automatic negative thoughts that will run your life if you let them. Turn off and banish the negative images and people that enter your mind

Peace!!

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

What Does Support Look Like to You?

  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe...
