Coaching Tip #832

You can literally change how you feel, the instant you change your thoughts. The next time you catch yourself consumed by worry, anger, resentment, guilt, jealousy or any other negative thought, stop, and really take notice of how you feel – how unhappy you are. Next, change your mind by immediately changing what you are thinking about. Focus on any little thing you are grateful for and your thoughts will change to one’s such as peace, love, contentment and joy. Once again, notice how you feel – how your unhappiness was replaced by happiness. The only difference between these two very different states of being is your state of mind. Take the reins, and consciously direct your thoughts toward the feelings you want.
