Give thanks

For simply giving thanks, when you lie down to sleep each night or from time to time, for no reason or rhyme, you'll begin to move with life instead of against it.

You'll be shown that life could not possibly be more beautiful than it already is. You'll see that you are the fountainhead of your experience. You'll remember that you transcend all things time and space, and thus are their very master. And you'll find that you live in a paradise where the only thing that truly seems impossible is how powerful you really are and how much you are loved.

What else would you think about, anyway? I bet many of you don’t think about life in this way. As adults and perhaps when we were children we had thoughts running around in our head.

This is what is called self-talk and it includes not only what people say to themselves out loud or inside our heads. Self-talk is set apart from other inner speech and non-language-based cognition, however, in that it has recognizable syntax and can occur either internally or out loud. When considered this way, self-talk can be defined as an act of syntactically recognizable communication in which the sender of the message is also the intended receiver.

By the time we have reached adulthood, we have heard the word no more than 200,000 times, and that has an effect on us. As some of here the negatives, we begin to use self-talk to reinforce what we hear from others. So the voice in our head starts to tell us we are not good enough, not smart enough, not beautiful or handsome enough and over time we begin to believe the lies we tell ourselves. So, my hope is that you will begin to focus on all the positives you have going for you. You are loved and respected and have friends and family, who see only the good in you. Perhaps it is time for you to start seeing the good within as well.
