WYSIWYG

WYSIWYG. Do we all know what this is? For those who don't, WYSIWYG is an acronym for What You See Is What You Get. It's a term that was originally created for computer technology. 

But here's my twist on this acronym: What You SAY Is What You Get. You can simplify that by using the term "self-talk". Self-talk is what we all do, every moment of every day - creating what we get in our lives. That's right! We create what we get in our lives.

Every thought we have is based on our belief system. And if our belief system is founded on self-doubt and worry, then that's what we'll receive in our lives. But how can we change those negative patterns of self-talk? Simple! All we need to do is be aware. Awareness brings us to a place of examination - a place where we see all our thoughts and decide whether they're beneficial for us to keep, or to discard. As Mary Baker Eddy said, "Stand porter at the door of thought." Be ready to intercept those thoughts that can lead us away from the path of love. Be ready to throw away those thoughts that don't benefit us.

Self-talk is so important. It's the path we walk; it's the life we lead. And the good news is that it's so simple to merely change your mind. Change your thoughts to positive ones. Accept what occurs in your life and know that there's a good reason for everything. Tell yourself that everything is going to work out perfectly - for the Highest Good of yourself, and for the Highest Good of All. 

Now you don't have to take it just from me. There are a lot of experts out there who can coach you and guide you to a wonderful life of joy and abundance using self-talk techniques. Here are a couple of examples:

  

Say what you want - say what you desire - because what you say is what you get. Do you want happiness? Say it! Do you want peace? Say it! Do you want abundance? Say it! All the things you say to yourself are building blocks to your future. Build well and build solidly. There's nothing like a solid foundation on which to build a solid life!

Always remember - WYSIWYG - What You Say Is What You Get. Say it wisely...and say it with love!

Two Thoughts

 

Two Thoughts

Today, I'd like to take just a couple of minutes to talk about just a couple of things - two things, to be exact. And those two things are thoughts - two thoughts.

Here's something to consider: They say the human brain produces approximately 70,000 thoughts on an average day. Wow! Our brains are so busy. But busy doesn't necessarily mean productive, does it? And don't we want all our thoughts to be productive? Of course, there's a place for "down time", when we don't want to think at all - we just want to relax and chill out. But even then, we're having a thought. And when we're relaxed, we're probably thinking relaxed thoughts - good thoughts, soft thoughts, loving thoughts.

Aha! There we are - "loving thoughts". And there's the message here: we have a choice. We can choose every thought we have. And for every one of those 70,000 thoughts, we actually only have two! "What?!", you ask. "How can 70,000 thoughts be reduced to just two?"

It's quite simple. You see, there are really only two originating thoughts. There are thoughts of love, and there are thoughts of fear. Every single thought you have can be traced back to it's source - either love or fear.

Think about that. Take some of your thoughts, randomly, and think about them. Are they based on fear, or love? See how that works? It's amazing, isn't it? 

So now you know that you have only two thoughts, it's much simpler to choose to think from a foundation of love, instead of fear. Why not take a moment to make that choice? Because every loving thought you send out into the Universe, collects like thoughts, and sends them back to you. And all you have to do is say "Thank You."

You're Welcome!!

And here's an expert on loving thoughts: Neale Donald Walsch. In his Conversations with God series, Neale offers many reasons for and example of loving thoughts. This series of books was instrumental in bringing me from a place of fear thoughts to that wonderful place of love thoughts. It's well worth reading...check it out:

Here's a loving thought you can use to start every day with love:

"To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, today is big with blessings."
