#HigherThinking
As I move through this day, I will make it a point to…
Replace troubled thoughts with thoughts of peace.
Replace thoughts of weakness with thoughts of strength.
Replace thoughts of limitation with thoughts of possibility.
Replace thoughts of anger with thoughts of compassion.
I will let go of any thoughts of frustration and helplessness and replace them with thoughts of creativity and empowerment.
I will gather my various and scattered thoughts together, and point them all in a positive, productive direction. I will embrace each thought and allow the power of each thought to enhance the others.
My thoughts will determine what I decide to do with all that I have. And I will determine what my thoughts will be.
I will put them to work in a positive way, moment by moment and make them all thoughts that serve me well.
#Understanding
This world is filled with people of incredibly diverse backgrounds and passions. In this world, one of the most valuable skills I can have is the ability to understand.
When I can grasp and consider the viewpoint of another, it immediately puts our relationship on a vastly higher plane. Even when I do not agree and never will, still it pays to understand.
The more interconnected and interdependent I become, the more valuable is my ability to understand.
I know seeking to truly understand someone and see the world from their point of view will demand courage and confidence from me. I will very likely be confronted with a new idea that will challenge my own comfortable assumptions.
Yet I know that when my “thinking” is challenged, my “thinking” becomes stronger. The more I seek to understand others, the more powerful and effective my own thoughts and efforts will be.
