Been Quiet but for a good Reason.

So what’s the deal you ask? Why have I been so quiet! Simple, I have been using the time to reflect, reconnect and to find my inner peace and calmness. This year has been a lot to deal with, and after recently picking up the book ‘The Secret’, I have realized something pretty scary!

I am the cause of everything that happened this year! My negative thinking, my anger, confusion and depression attracted all this negativity towards my life! I brought this on myself! Not God, or other people – I did this! I created this year filled with negativity, that attracted a ‘melt down’ and a car crash, and a whole bunch of other issues. I have been blaming my mental health, but it’s not my mental health it’s my mental thought patterns that has attracted this negativity.

So obviously I need to change the way I think and feel! I need to think positively to attract positivity into my life. No longer is my mental disease going to pull me down…..No…..No, because I AM THE MASTER OF MY OWN THOUGHTS! Yes, the secret taught me that. Only I can decide what thoughts go through my head, and if it’s continuously negative, then of course I should have expected the year I had; but here’s the kicker – No longer am I going to allow that!

Positive thinking is my way forward, and I am going to prove it in 2020 because, this is my year for many opportunities and doors that are going to open for us. I will be living in America, and by June 2020 things will be well into motion. I will have my dream home, and the car of my dreams- why! Because I am thinking of it daily. I am reminding myself every morning, I am repeating to myself that I am the master of my thoughts and I control my future.

Yes I have used tools to help me. I have a vision board up, on my bedroom wall and even one up in the shower, so that I am continuously reminded of my goals for 2020 – my mind is continuously being refreshed of these envisions/goals.

Now you probably asking but how do you keep your mind in a positive thought pattern all the time. My trick is, I use my emotions. Emotions remind us where our minds currently are. So if I am feeling sad, angry, depressed or irritated – then my mind is in a negative state! If I am happy, inspired and motivated – my mind is in a positive state.

I learnt some tricks recently, and trust me they work! If you follow me on Facebook, you’ll notice I have been posting songs that make me happy. So the moment I feel down, I know I need to lift my mind into a positive state and I can easily do that by pumping a song that makes me happy and energized! I can also think of some happy moments in my life, so I’ll think about my wedding day, or our first overseas holiday, or the feeling experienced when we purchased our first home. Those feelings and thoughts pull you out of a negative state and into a positive state, because they are happy thoughts.

You know what also works (now hold on for this)…..Smiling. By simply smiling you can change your emotions which are linked to your thoughts!

So watch this space guys, 2020 is the year that I become a huge success. I will be living in America with my partner, I will have my dream home and I will be driving the car of my dreams. I’ll be doing work that I love, and we will be financially stable and burden free, because this is what I am training and reminding my mind of every morning.

Every morning, on my way to work, I pump up a happy song (currently it’s ALIVE by Hillsong) and repeat to myself that I am the master of my own thoughts and then repeat my dreams and goals and then envision them in my mind, and get excited and feel happy for these thoughts. I know they will come true!

I am already seeing a difference in a matter of a week, my stress levels at work have come down and I am not worried as much anymore because I know I have a bright future lying ahead (in fact it’s just around the corner).

So this is me saying goodbye to negativity and hello to positivity!

Go on, I dare you, try it for a week and see what happens to you – your dream life is just a few thought patterns away!

This is me signing off for the season, have a Merry Christmas, and may you all be safe and positive during this festive season!
