The way the
brain works is like this:
Thought - Emotion - Behaviour.
This is a
scientific fact.
Before every
emotion there is a thought.
We may not be
aware of it but there always is.
Therefore, if
you want to change your behaviour
and your
emotion long term, you have to change your Thoughts.
In other words:
Change your
Thinking!
It’s not airy
fairy, it’s scientific.
It is so simple
that most people refuse to believe it.
If I were to
give you an elaborate plan
with hard words
in it and told you it would help you
you would
probably believe me.
But that’s not
the case. It is very simple.
Start with your
thoughts.
Whenever you
feel sad or experience a negative emotion
or display a
negative behaviour, don’t ask yourself:
Why did I do
that? nor Why did I feel like that?
But rather ask
yourself:
What thoughts
did have at the time?
literary: What
was I thinking?
You will find
that at the start of the negative emotion or behaviour
there was a
thought, a Negative Thought.
Tag that
thought as Negative and say it out loud
"That is a
Negative Thought; I am not going to allow it to affect me"
Then replace it
with a positive thought:
Something that
is in your control.
If you get into
this habit, and "tag" these thoughts
you will change
your emotions and your behaviour,
and the
behaviour of other towards you.
This is a
fact my friends.
