Thought Of The Day : New Beginning

Thought Of The Day : New Beginning

We are always on the precipice of a new beginning and it represents a grand opportunity for us. To make the most of it, we will need to truly leave the past behind - not just the negative effects it had on our life, but we will also need to alter some of the ways we dealt with life in the past. We need to be more proactive in our own life. We need to take charge. As we move forward, try to evaluate what caused the problems we had. If we can be honest with ourselves, this could be a positive, life-changing shift in where we want our life to go from here.

Thought of the Day - Identity Crisis

Thought of the Day - Identity Crisis

People usually use the phrase 'identity crisis' in a negative context. Yet, sometimes, a bout of self-doubt can be healthy. That's especially so if we have started to see ourselves as some kind of a loser... or if we have wrongly decided that we know where our limits lie. Just as we look odd in old clothes that no longer fit us, so we feel odd in habits we ought to have outgrown.

Thought of the day - Life on TV

Thought of the day - Life on TV

Watching a film in a movie theater is a much different experience than watching it on the couch in our living rooms. In a theater, we face a gigantic screen, which makes us feel like we're a part of the imagery. We are also surrounded by sound - so much so that we can even feel the vibrations of the words and the music. When we let negative thoughts take over our minds, the experience is like being in a theater. It becomes real and involving. If we're suffering from worry, we need to envision our fears on a TV screen. Then picture ourselves walking up to it and turning it off. We are in control.
