thoughts - large and small

I am learning that it is so important to check in and listen to my thoughts. 

Historically, I have ignored them, dismissed them, run from them, hidden them, and become overwhelmed by them.

But in reality thoughts in and of themselves are not so scarey. 

If I check into them:

Listen

Evaluate

Acknowledge

Sift, process, and toss what isn't truthful....

They become manageble.

If change is needed, I can add it to my daily plan or goals for the year. 

When I ignore them,  I depreciate myself and that can adversely affect my emotions, health, and relationships. 

Thoughts can be friends and powerful teachers.
