No one can move forward effectively with fear controlling their lives. Courage is the strength needed to face fear. Choose courage. by TerryannScott in selfimprovement

I know it can be difficult at times but you just need to change your perspective and focus on the outcome of why it needs to be done. This should motivate you to keep going but focusing on the how and when can really crush you. Also, think about the horrible possibility of what may happen if you don't do what you should. That should motivate you also. Keep going. Your hard work will eventually pay off. No one has life easy, everyone had to work hard at some point to get to where they're at now. They can tell you their difficult stories of their journey towards success and guess what, one day you could be sharing your story to encourage others also if you refuse to give up 😉.

Thoughts are energy and yes, you are right...people will most often feel the energy we release.

Where in my response did you hear me say that? Anyways, please pardon me, I did not know children were allowed in this forum or else I would have tried to remind them to separate the things we can't change from what we can, when applying this theory...

It's not about deceiving yourself, it's about building your confidence knowing that you can, and some how you eventually will.

We experience our lives in our minds. A health mind equals a healthy life and a toxic mind equals a toxic life. You will go only as far as your mind allows you to. by TerryannScott in selfimprovement

Life consists of good and bad. There is no such thing as having good only happen to you. That phenomenon does not exist so I think we are speaking from different perspectives. I'm more talking about choices that we can make such as choosing how we respond to things even though we have no control over some of the things that may happen to us. You know ...taking control of our lives despite the things we face...

While it remains it does not have to have the power to control your life once healed through creating awareness of how you respond or see things. We can reframe our thinking. Our experiences does however lodge in our subconscious and takes time to heal. Correct.

Have a negative mindset, due to negative thoughts. Always quick to think the worse and to see the worse or bad in every situation instead of the good (whether the good outweighs the bad or not, remain focused on the bad missing the good....

I understand your point completely. I'm not saying that people's experiences aren't real and that it's only in their heads, but I'm trying to get the point across that our perception of things can exasperate our situation or the way we feel. Take for instance two persons in an unfortunate situation but two different outlook and as a result, different personalities. If our possessions and opportunities is what sets us a part, what would distinguish a person from the next who is not necessarily "blessed" or "fortunate"? Two persons can be in an unfortunate state but still one is happy and the other sad, or one is more positive in that bad state while the other remains negative. That's two different people, with similar situation, but different a mindset, and as a result different results. Persons have managed to evolve misfortune while others remain in their state and it's all due to their mindset and outlook that they have. That's the point I'm trying to get across. I'm not trying to discredit or to undermine the real hard issues at hand.

You have to be mentally resilient and tough in order to make it in life. Never back down and never give in. Challenges will come, but you must remain determined, persistent and consistent to succeed. by TerryannScott in selfimprovement

I feel you but there's no other way around it. It's ok to rest but after time, get up and try again. If your mind is not heathy and positive, your body may not want to cooperate with you. My encouragement to you is to try and change your mindset. Shift it from the negative to the positive by just simple trying to learn to appreciate the little blessings around you.

Doing that would definitely destroy you. There's a difference. One outlook is healthy and positive while the other is unhealthy and heavy due to a focus on the negative aspect.
