One of the most effective ways to proactively and permanently change the way you think is with daily affirmations.  These reminders are uplifting truths you want to believe and heartwarming convictions about yourself or the world as a whole.  They train your brain to think positively.

I love Gandhi quotes.  Very humbling aren't they?

Can we have a like button?  Can I post this here?

 

I'll have to activate the like button!  Thanks for the heads up. 

Can we "like" our own posts?

Wait, we did have a like button.  I have to find out what happened to it...

What about a "dislike" button? In case we change our minds?

Not a flatliner, Ava.  I don't blame you for not caring for April Fool's Day.  So sorry.

Food for thought, I do #6 'mind reading' all the time..,

 We lose ourselves in the things we love.   :wub:

We find ourselves there too   :)--Kristin Martz

 

"Be kind to yourself. Stop telling yourself that whatever you are struggling with 'should' be easy. If something is hard for you, it is hard for you. There are probably Reasons, though those may just be how you are wired. Acknowledge these things. When you finish something hard, be proud! Celebrate a little.

And really, just stop saying 'should' to yourself about your thoughts and feelings in any context. You feel how you feel. The things in your head are the things in your head. You can’t change either directly through sheer force of will. You can only change what you do. Stop beating yourself up for who and what you are right now–it isn’t productive. Focus on moving forward."
