I never thought I liked interruptions but this week I’ve come to appreciate them. We were given the challenge of going on a mental diet from negative thoughts. So I began and was quickly aware that I wasn’t nearly as positive a person as I thought. So when you become aware that you’re thinking a negative thought then if you’re not careful you have another negative thought because you shouldn’t be having the 1st one…it can become a vicious circle. Mark’s tip of using a pleasant memory to interrupt yourself was very helpful. I don’t actually have a picture like he does but my memory is of myself and 3 of my sisters and some of our children in the ocean in CA jumping waves. It usually makes me smile and very quickly the entire negative circle is gone.
I’ve also been enjoying the interruptions of seeing my shapes all over the house…what a good reminder of my DMP goals and dreams.
So I’ve decided I like the right kind of interuptions…those that are helping to re-train my subconscious mind.
