You have tens of thousands of thoughts per day. Most of them are not true.
Today, the third in a series of looking at each of the Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery in more detail. The third commandment is, "I must believe that most of my thoughts are untrue."
Here are some tools to challenge bad thoughts, and how to manage them.
Scripture: II Cor. 10:5, Psalm 34:8
The Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery (Updated 3/8/2024; corollaries coming soon)
1. I must relentlessly refuse to participate in my own demise.
2. I must recognize that feelings are not facts, they are chemical events in my brain.
3. I must recognize that most of my thoughts are untrue.
4. I must love tomorrow more than I hate how I feel right now.
5. I must not treat bad feelings with bad operations.
6. I must stop making an operation out of everything.
7. I must not perpetuate generational thought or behavioral issues in my family or start any new ones.
8. I must love my brain and live in such a way as to improve it.
9. I must believe that what I’m doing I’m getting better at.
10. I must understand that thoughts become things.
