So....... I know the term is old, but it's been one that I've adopted these past couple days. I've realized that I've been held in somewhat of the same position by the same situation all year long. So this past Friday, I decided to "LIG It!" & it's worked out wonderfully well, thus far.
Thought: What would it be like to go through an entire day w/o thought??
I have no idea what this would be like, as my brain is a personal, Fox News Channel. There's not a nanosecond that goes by in which my brain isn't processing some completely random thought. So, to counteract this busy monster, each time I'm confronted w/ such random thoughts, I tell my brain, "let it go." Though, it seems strange to hear myself repeat this phrase @ various moments throughout the day, sometimes w/in seconds, it nips that thought in the bud. To the point where it's nearly trained to "switch channels" to something more productive, w/o me having mention my new mantra.
B/c the fact of the matter is, "your thoughts & emotions only live when you believe them." (taken from The Four Agreements - Companion Book)
So, how about we all just "LIG It," before December 31st comes & we're making the same hopeless promises to ourselves.
