Reframe Your Thoughts

Ask yourself, how do I talk to myself?

Do you believe that good health is hard to acquire? Don’t have enough time in the day? Do you think about what you can’t get done, or don’t have, or won’t accomplish today?

Often, we aren’t nearly as kind or compassionate with ourselves as we are with other people. Especially when we face our individual challenges, our mindset and internal dialog while we go through the issue IS the issue. Minor tweaks to the language we use when we are thinking and talking with ourselves and others can lead to major shifts in our productivity and prosperity.

The easiest way to turn around a litany of can’ts, don’ts, and won’ts? REFRAME it! Choose instead to practice thinking about what you GET to have.

I GET to eat foods that bring me energy.

I GET to drink healthy, clean water with lemon in it.

I GET to move my body.

I GET to choose organic.

I GET to take time for myself to consciously breathe.

GET it?

Every time you have a thought with the words can’t, don’t, or won’t, try to Reframe it.

“I don’t have time to get to the gym today” becomes “I GET to take the stairs at work and burn a few extra calories”

“I can’t afford to buy organic for my family on my salary” becomes “I GET to thoughtfully prepare a meal and consciously enjoy dinnertime with my loved ones”

Like anything, mindset is a practice. And the good news is we can change it with practice over time. We may have gotten really good at negative thinking from all those years of practice. We’ve become experts! So, now, if we want different results, we GET to practice being an optimist – we practice seeing and thinking about what we get to have and do. And the more we focus on that, the happier we feel; we are now in a state of gratitude. Gratitude is the vibration of receiving all the abundance that is already here. And when we practice receiving abundance, we are saying YES to more of that. It is a mindset. And it’s a practice worth pursuing.
