If it’s true that the brain creates 3 thousand thoughts per minute, doesn’t it make sense that many of them aren’t even true?
Write one down. Take a break. Come back to it later and ask yourself, “Is it true?” Wait for the answer.
You may break out into a Big Smile… you might even laugh.
Experience the instant freedom!
Here are some examples:
* She’s hates me, so I must be a bad person.*
She hates me.
Is it true?
No. She seems upset, but it’s unlikely that she hates me.
I’m a bad person.
Is it true?
No. I have a lot of great qualities. I’m not perfect though. I’m ok with that, so, no. I am not a “bad person”.
* I can’t get through this — this is killing me *
This is killing me.
Is it true?
It’s not true – this is uncomfortable but I won’t die.
