Today I went and spoke to someone who gave me good advice when it came to combating my thoughts- those thoughts that are so loud and judgmental. These are so often the things that scream at me...trying to steal my joy, freedom, and wholeness. And so often I let them do that very thing. I let them win the battle, but the victory is no longer going to this. With God's help I will be victorious!
So when these thoughts come up...ask:
1. Is that really true?
2. Can I ever really know/prove it to be true?
3. How does this judgment make me feel?
4. How would I feel without it?
5. Is there any PEACEFUL reason to keep this thought?
6. What happens if I turn it around? Can I find a kernel of wisdom in it's opposite?
