If thoughts were like money

A happy, joy-filled day to you!  

I am so convinced of the power of our thoughts.  I've experienced it in my own life and my clients' lives over and over and over.   

Bruce Lipton, a scientist in epigenetics, studies the impact of our thoughts and beliefs on our genetic predispositions; and now has evidence that how you think and what you believe does indeed impact whether or not your predispositions actualize.   

He suggests that we'd benefit by equating our thoughts with spending money, and considering the return on them.  In other words, if you had to pay for each thought you had, would you waste it on thoughts that don't do you any good? 

How do you know if they're doing you good or not?  Well, it's quite simple.  If you don't feel good after thinking them, then they're not doing you or anyone any good!  It's like wasting your "money"!




New Possibilities for You

• Use your thoughts (i.e. spend your "money") wisely!  What you put your attention on expands. Perhaps you've heard of self fulfilling prophecies?  It's like that!
  
• My favorite analogy is that your mind is like a GPS.  It will try its best to take you where you direct it to go.  Your thoughts are those directions.  For those of us who believe in the law of attraction, this analogy is taken to an even bigger scope of directing the Universe where to take you.
  
• Learning this takes practice.  Begin by at least noticing when you don't feel so good, and becoming aware of the thoughts just preceding those feelings.  What inner narrative was going on?  Pivot to a better feeling thought.  Try out a better feeling perspective, as if you were supporting a good friend or loved one.  How would you speak to them about that issue?
• Need more help learning to manage and change your thinking patterns? 

"Ann has an amazing gift in seeing the positive side of situations and getting to the root of negative thinking, and leading one to see the positive side of situations.  I always started a session perceiving a situation as hopeless, but my perception would change drastically after our coaching session.  I've accomplished more than the goals I set out to achieve when I began my work with her.  My relationships have improved; I feel better about myself; I feel hopeful and calm about my future and am able to take courageous steps I never could before. I have strategies I can continue to use; and I am having so much more fun! " Melissa Z.

E-mail me to set up a free Happiness Upgrade Activation Session, and we'll explore what new possibilities we can create for you!  This is a 45 minute one-on-one phone call with ME!  Without attachment, I'm happy to be a catalyst towards you experiencing greater harmony, happiness and success.

E-mailed to me after one of these calls:  "Ann, from my heart, thank you again for one of the most wonderful, enlightening and helpful conversations I've ever had in my life! You are very special and blessed; and have helped me so much in so little time. I felt like I could really talk with you openly and honestly, and that you really understood where I am coming from.

Supporting you in greater ease and joy, with a warm heart,
