Hmmm. I am not so sure, Mickey, that writing my negative thoughts in my journal is a good thing. It is kind of like cheating. To not complain for 21 days would be as difficult for me as a marathon. I literally have been trying to do this in my head and it hurts. Do you wanna try this with me, maybe?
Just try and let me know how it goes for you.
I think I would have to not put the negative thoughts in my journal, either.
I have been so negative for so long this is a super big challenge.
Here's an example: When I told my son I got fired from my job I was really upset. My son said, "You tried. That's the success. You can try again. Getting fired doesn't have anything to do with it." My son reads and listens to a lot of positive coaching stuff.
Believe me it will be hard for me to do this but I feel challenged.
How about you?
