 When you're driving a car you keep your hands on the wheel because you know if you take your hands off the wheel It's going to start veering off in the wrong direction and probably crash and cause some harm Well, the same thing with our mind our day-to-day moment-to-moment management of our consciousness and yes your mind and your consciousness requires your Management it by its own nature It probably will just like a car with your hands off veer off and go in the wrong direction probably Caused some harm to yourself or to others So keep your hands on the wheel of your mind whenever you find your thoughts going in a Even slightly negative direction Stop and erupt that thought right then and there and replace it with a positive idea Replace it with a positive thought keep your hands on the wheel of your mind So this applies whether you are thinking about a person a task or thinking about yourself So when you're thinking of let's just start with yourself if you ever have a thought of self-punishment Judging yourself saying I'm not doing enough. I'm not worthy enough Stop and erupt that thought right then and there and instead replace it with a universally true positive thought about you which is I am enough and I am completely and totally loved and Whatever I do today, whatever I can do is enough. Okay, so interrupt negativity Redirect it gently towards positivity and by the way be grateful that you caught yourself in a negative thought because that is really the first step To mindfulness is to catch yourself in a negative so to be grateful when you're whenever you do catch yourself in a negative thought And then redirect towards positivity. This applies of course to Not only judging yourself, but judging others as well whenever you find yourself having a negative thought about somebody else Interrupt that negative thought about them and erupt that judgment and instead replace it with a positive thought about them Everybody has some positive trait. So look for a positive trait and say wow Yeah, that person is really good at that or that person and grateful that has this positive trait Or at the very least guess what you can pray for their well-being and pray for their higher good Which is a positive thought also or when you have a negative thought about a task or a project You're scared of that. You're intimidated You think you're not gonna do well You're gonna think you're gonna be laughed at interrupt that negative thought right then and there replace it with a positive thought that I Can do this. I don't have to be the best in the world but at the very least I can do what I can today and that is enough and Sometimes when you are not sure what positive thoughts replace a negative thought with let me give you a very simple thing You can do very simple thing, which is breathing you can breathe in love and breathe out Gratefulness for that love. I really do believe that all of us are literally Walking and breathing in love every moment of every day now Maybe one day scientists will finally have the instrument subtle enough to realize that but for now Let's just imagine and have a fantasy of that that we are literally Walking in and breathing in a universe of love and wisdom So the the one simple practice breathing in love Breathing out gratefulness for that love and another one simple is breathing in Openness to and breathing out greater wisdom openness to greater wisdom. So that's it Reminder to keep your hands on the wheel of your mind and until the next video My name is George cow always open to your questions and comments and I wish you well
