What are you thinking?

The average person has about 48.6 thoughts per minute, according to the Laboratory of Neuro Imaging at USC. This adds up to a total of 70,000 thoughts per day. That’s a crazy number. Even if it’s only 50,000 thoughts a day, that’s a lot.
Several sources estimate that 70% of these thoughts are believed to be negative. This doesn’t surprise me when all we hear in the news is what’s wrong in the world, and most people’s conversations seem to be about what’s going wrong rather than what’s right in their life.
95% of these 70,000 thoughts are said to be repetitive. Repetition turns thoughts into beliefs. Beliefs become our reality. How is this working for you? For me it doesn’t work well at all.
My life-changing moment occurred when the thought spewed out of my mouth, “I can’t fail because then everyone will know I’m no good,” It was beyond shocking to hear these words – and at the same time I recognized them as a thought I’d been thinking all of my life.
This moment catapulted me into the adventure of diving deep to know myself from the inside out. I certainly didn’t want the thought that I was no good to continue being the belief driving my life. It was obvious that I was the only one who could change the course, and for me this was non-negotiable. Thankfully, there was some part of me that knew I deserved better, much better. The journey has been exciting, scary, and life-changing.
If sharing my story and experiences could help someone else change the unhappy course of their life – why not? This provided enough inspiration to get started writing, even though I had no clue at the time where it might lead.
So, I ask you again, “what are you thinking? What’s going on in your life that you wish was different than it is?”
We’ll talk more. In the meantime, don’t believe everything you think
