It is human nature to focus on the negatives, the things that stress you out or things that worry you.
These types of thoughts are very powerful and can dictate your future.
For example, if you are constantly saying 'I can't lose weight, I will never lose any weight' then the first time that your weight loss gets difficult you will give up and say it didn't work.
Your mind is very powerful and I will admit that I have fallen into these mind games with myself and it brings down my energy, it is all I think about, I don't want to do anything else except think of this negative thought. It actually happened to me on Sunday when I got back from vacation. Thankfully I just listened to these tapes while on vacation so I quickly snapped out of it.
I recognized what I was doing and said to myself 'What are you doing? These are the exact thoughts that will put me in a horrible mood'. So I immediately started thinking of good things. I took my daughter outside and we went for a walk and I just watched her be happy, pick rocks, laugh, etc. I knew my day would be ruined if I let that one negative thought dominate my day."
