Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - Good-bye Negative Thoughts

Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - " Good-bye Negative Thoughts "

OK, so we've now spent two days becoming aware of the negatives in our

thoughts. Are you having trouble getting some of those negative thoughts to

go away?

No one, not even the most optimistic person in the world, can think

positively all the time. But successful people know how to get rid of their

negative thoughts fast when they do appear.

Here's a great technique that originated with Matt Oechsli, a therapeutic

hypnotist:

First, identify the thought that is bothering you. Most likely, it is a fear

of something. Is it failure? Rejection? Incompetence? Could it be illness or

catastrophe?

Secondly, interrupt it by visualizing a candle flame and taking a long, deep

breath. You can't think two thoughts at the same time, so you'll find your

fear diminishing, and the deep breathing triggers a relaxation response.

Third, eject it. As you exhale, imagine that you are breathing out the

fearful or negative thought. See the candle flame flicker and go out as you

blow it away with your breath.

Finally, replace it. Put a positive affirmation in its place and repeat it

several times.

Remember: identify, interrupt, eject and replace. It will take some practice

at first, but this is a technique that can help you learn how to take charge

of your thoughts, and at the same time, you will be taking charge of your

life.
