Thoughts come in all types. Some are helpful, some aren’t. They vary in balance between fact and feeling. Some are meaningful to hold on to and some we can evaluate and discard.
What’s a thought you had today that you can step back from and say, “hey, let’s change that?”
Want to be fearless? Don't bother trying to delete your anxiety. That time is better spent building new habits of courage. Consciously build your reserve of mindfulness, self-compassion & psychological flexibility. We do better building than avoiding.
Life tip: designate a notebook + once a day/week (e.g. Sundays, or morning/night) do a “brain dump”.
List anything on your mind to be processed: tasks, goals, ideas, questions.
Then, turn entries into action items and/or journal.
Bonus: categorize your brain dump if desired.
