Fallen into the difficulty, succumbed to the bad day, let negativity take over our minds/weeks/months. Raise your hand, because in one hand Iām holding a paddle but I would be raising my other with you!
Itās easy to fall in, but thereās always a way to get out, too. One of my favorite metaphysical teachers Louise Hay always said: ānegativity is just a thought, and a thought can be changedā.
If I constantly told myself I couldnāt go too far from shore (which I did years back), I would be succumbing to fearful thoughts, That really had no reason to be there.
āIf I fall in, if no one is out here, what will happen? Iāll drown!ā
I recognized that fear and I turned the thought around.
My lake house is on a populated lake, people would see me.
I will have a life jacket on. (Not in this picture.. because I actually was close to shoreš)
I can swim.
I turned all these thoughts of why I shouldnāt, into logical reasons of why I can.
Now, itās one of the ways I relax after a long day!
This is a small scale, but itās all relative. Fear is fear. Worry is worry. Your job, your relationship, your dreams- theyāre all possible. You just have to believe they are and that starts with your thoughts. š
