You’re right — in fact most of us are paralysed by those thoughts, aren’t we? I think those thoughts are really the fog that stop us from focusing. In theory, we all know it but when it comes to practice, it’s easy to succumb.

Thanks much for the tweet-love also! 🙂

Pooja

I worry about real and imagined problems. But I am mostly paralyzed by the same negative thoughts bombarding me over and over again until I dissolve into a teary mass on the floor! Negativity has become an obsession for me. I work hard every minute to overpower my ugliness, but, thus far, I notice more failures than successes.

I do like the idea of jotting down my thoughts – it does help to get out of our heads and look at a problem objectively.

Andrew – I also enjoyed your comment about focusing on the SOLUTION instead of the obstacle.

Thank you so much #HUGS

Don’t depict the feeling when you feel bad but “analyze” the reason/solution to overcome the feel. But do depict the feeling when you feel good. That’s what I learned from a mentor of practicing “positive thinking”. I have kept writing down my gratitude diaries for about two years. This practice makes me calm, and peace of mind.
