Stretch Your Mind

Today I came across an affirmation from Louise Hay – “I love stretching my mind, thinking of the highest good available”. I love that – I love the idea of stretching yourself to imagine the best possible scenario. Now some people will say this is unrealistic…and to them I say: Bullshit.

Is it realistic to imagine that someone who is 5 minutes late home has been hit by a comet? No. Is it realistic to imagine that the boss wants a word because they will sack you? No. Is it possible? Oh yeah…but 99% of the things we worry about never happen – so is worry realistic? No.

Also, if you are in the habit of looking for the best in people, situations, yourself, you are more likely to find it (the same applies if you look for the worst) so it then becomes more realistic. “Realistic” when applied in this way usually means “pessimistic” and frankly, optimists have way more fun.

So today, stretch your mind by thinking of the best that is possible for you. Maybe, just maybe that ‘best’ is realistic, and something you can achieve. But you’ll never know unless you try!

A Quick Trip To Chuntersville

Let me give you a little insight into my head this morning “oh I can’t face getting up, it’s bloody grey again, I hate rain, I hate January, I need some sunlight, it’s a terrible shame for me, I don’t want to do that, why can’t people just leave me alone, I’ll never get this done, my desk is a mess, I don’t want to…” As you can imagine, it wasn’t much fun being me today! At one point I wanted to put my head on the desk and cry buckets.

I am not generally a whiner (except in winter), but I have my moments where everything is a stress, a chore, a pain and I just wish the whole world would leave me alone. When I am being a whiner there is usually a reason for it – no, not that everyone in the world is a pain in the ass – today that reason was that I was tired and feeling a little run down. Perfectly simple, but my attention was firmly focused on the outside of me, at where everything and everyone was annoying me!

Your true self is a sunny, optimistic, excitable being (remember that one that you were when you were 3 years old – that was you before the world drummed it out of you) so often when you feel bad, it is because you are holding yourself apart from who you really are. When you look into WHY you are holding yourself away from who you really are, you can fix it. In my case, all I needed was a little tlc and I was right as rain again. Hmm, maybe I shouldn’t have mentioned rain, I feel another little chunter coming on…
