Reprogramming Your Mind for a Change

It’s hard to stay optimistic and enthusiastic when you think the same fear based thoughts over and over again.  Studies show that we have about 50,000 thoughts per day, and 90% of them are repetitive.  Other research indicates that 77% of everything that most people think about is negative, self-damaging, and counterproductive.
The first step to break this cycle of destructive thinking is to become more aware of what thoughts are running through your mind.  This can take vigilance because the ego identifies with the thoughts. Witnessing your thoughts requires stepping back and listening to what you are telling yourself. The most obvious time to practice is when you are not feeling good about something. Ask yourself: Is this thought true? Is this thought helpful?
To motivate yourself to make the change you want to have in your behaviour, requires a positive coach inside your head that replies to the excuses “it’s true that time is tight, but I’ve set aside this hour to exercise and although it’s hot and I’m not in the mood, I’m going to follow through on my commitment to myself because I know how great I’ll feel while I’m exercising and when I’m finished.” Take Nike’s slogan and “Just do it!” despite the whining voices in your head.
