Change Your Thoughts...Change Your Reality

Every one of us, at some point in our lives, may feel as if we are not enough; feel as if the things we do are insignificant.   For most of us, that feeling goes away after some time, but for others, the feeling seems to stick around much longer than is healthy.   We get stuck in a funk which causes us to feel some type of way about ourselves.  The truth of the matter is, it’s ONLY A FEELING.  And you have the power to change that feeling simply by changing your THOUGHTS.

Example… Tony is a loner.  He feels as if no one understands him, that he’s a strange vegetable in a world full of fruits.  He feels the world looks at him as some strange entity and it makes him self-conscious and somewhat a loner.  Now, because of that THOUGHT, he withdraws even deeper into himself, making himself feel even more like a loner.  Because he feels ostracized, he stays at home and pretty much entertain himself with videos and old movies.  By staying at home, Tony is even less likely to meet any new people, therefore making his original thought (no one understands him and he’s looked at as strange) manifest into reality.

Now what do you think would happen if Tony changed his original thought from “no one understand me and I’m looked at as strange” to “I am a unique individual and I am an interesting person to know”?  Yes!  Tony would make himself available in situations where folks have the opportunity to meet him, which with this newfound confidence, would no doubt happen sooner than later because we all love being around confident, interesting people. 

Tony is still the same person, but he THINKS differently of himself…creating a totally new outcome from the initial example. 

You may say, “Trena, this is too simple to be real” but I promise you, when your thoughts change (and you believe them!), your reality changes!
