Game Plan Thoughts

The best advice that I can stow upon you this Monday is:
Know your thoughts

Thoughts and how you think about things will determine how your day will go. Actively think on things that are positive and uplifting. If you don’t like the thought or the attitude that comes with a situation, it’s okay; acknowledge that the thought came, but let it go at the same time. DO NOT dwell on unhealthy thoughts.

Unhealthy thoughts can be categorized as:

 Criticism
 Judgment
Assumptions

Mocking
Belittling
Playing down/small

Nitpicking



The unhealthy thought list above can be aimed at others and at yourself; either way, they are not healthy or productive thoughts.

Surround your day with positivity. Nobody will think your thoughts for you, so make sure you are actively participating in the direction you want your thoughts to go. How you want your thoughts to go is directly related to how you entertain your thoughts. Unhealthy thoughts will come, but it’s all about how you choose to respond to them. As stated before, if you have a harsh thought that it not healthy for you, simply choose to let it go and start thinking on something positive. It may help if you have a few positive affirmations already in place so that when a negative thought comes, you’re ready with an already established thought to take its place…it’s what athletes like to call, having a game plan.

Here’s a great affirmation that you can have as part of your game plan: God Loves Me!

Days turn into weeks and weeks turns into months which follows into years. Start with your days and watch how the years improve.
