Retrain Your Brain





I always try to make my blog posts, positive.  I try to pick topics that can be helpful, and inspirational to others.  Many of my topics deal with change, and changing our way of thinking.  I am, by no means, an expert on anything that I choose to write about.  I try to live by the words that I write, and try to not be a "Do as I say, and not as I do" person.  However, I do struggle with the positivity aspect at times.  Retraining my brain, is a work in progress.

It is a requirement of this journey to retrain our brains.  If we don't, then we probably will not be successful.  We are having to change the way we eat, the way we plan, the way we think about food, the way we exercise, etc.  We all have our ups and downs, and sometimes it is difficult to keep going.  We have moments that we feel hopeful, and moments that we feel discouraged.  Sometimes it is hard to stay on track, and remain positive.

When I start having negative thoughts, I have to try to catch myself, and stop myself.  This is definitely a retraining process.  I am now starting to look for the good in the situation that I am having the negative thoughts about.  In situations that I would have quit in the past, I try to stay positive, and not give up.  I try to motivate those that are in need of motivation.  I try to help others turn their negative feelings around.  I know that there are many others in our community, who try to do the same thing.  I also know, that there are others to motivate me, and help me to see the good in these situations, when I can't see the good, by myself!

We don't have to go through the retraining aspect alone.  As long as we have each others' backs, we can all become more positive people, and we can all succeed on our journeys!  We must keep in mind that this is an on-going process that never ends.  We can see only positive one day, and the next day, have a negative thought creep into our heads!  No one is perfect, and most of us are not perfectly positive!

So, I'm saying this.  If you see me needing a kick in the butt, or an attitude adjustment, feel free to call me out on this!  I want to live by my words, and remain positive! 

There is a lot that can be said about retraining our brains.  I would welcome comments, and discussion.  I'm glad that you all are along on this journey with me! 





Always remember – YOU ARE AWESOME!  Go out and make it a great day!
