Self Improvement

Thinking and speaking positively are concepts that are age old. Proverbs 23:7 in the Bible mentions how a person is how they think. In the study human sciences there is a theory called cognitive behavioral therapy, which teaches people to think and speak themselves into mental health. Self-help professionals, mental health professionals, and spiritual leaders do not always agree on concepts, but this is one that they often times share. Why? It actually works. I am not going to go into more than saying that thoughts and words are energy and spirit that can be manifested into deeds. There is a bunch of information out there to explain it further, and I encourage you to study the practices. For now I will give it to you in a simple, usable manner.

Thinking positively works in conjunction with speaking and acting positively. Although it may seem impossible to control your thoughts, it isn't. The secret is awareness. First you need to take inventory of your thoughts. If you find that you think negatively often, begin to stop yourself mid-thought. Think the word Stop! Or instantly replace the negative thought with a more hopeful thought. If you continually use this process, you will begin to notice a change in your thought patterns.

Think positively to shape and reinforce what you say and how you act. Once your thoughts are working in harmony with your words and actions you will see growth in all areas of your life including your love relationship.

Words are very meaningful! Do not take lightly what you let flow from your lips. Your words shape and reinforce how you think and act. If you are constantly speaking negative words you are forming negative actions, feelings, and experiences for yourself. If you are constantly saying things like "there are no good men", "I can't put up with a man's crap", or "I don't know who would want me", don't be surprised when you find yourself in a relationship with a man who is a non-committal, untrustworthy, deceitful, and who brings a huge amount of drama.

Become committed to speaking positively in all aspects of your life. Speak positively about yourself, your health, your man, and your relationship; you will receive good things in return.
