Our minds are everything.

Thoughts and feelings turn into actions. Actions make up our life. That's why most great people famously protect their minds like soldiers.

“Most good gardeners guard their gardens like proud soldiers and make certain that no contamination ever enters. Yet look at the toxic waste that people put into the fertile garden of their minds every single day: The worries and anxieties, the fretting about the past, the brooding over the future, and those self-created fears that wreak havoc within your inner world.”

We can’t afford the luxury of negative thoughts.

You are 100% right that our thoughts and feelings turn into actions. To take that a step further, our beliefs about our self and the world turn into our thoughts. The key to life is to challenge any negative self-beliefs while also staying present and being conscious of our thoughts instead of letting them play out.

Wow this is perfectly said!! I’m right there with you

The story we tell about ourselves is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Having negative inner dialogue or self-talk definitely hurts

Thanks for sharing 😄
