Create a different path, create new beliefs, create new habits.

I recently found myself in a moment filled with frustration, agitation, and fatigue. To be truthful, I was painfully aware of the fact that I had chosen these feelings, despite my pursuit to constantly increase my consciousness. I realized I was allowing these feelings to drag me down a rabbit hole, yet I willingly chose that path in that moment.

Having been at a Conference at the time, a voice from the stage woke me from my self-pity and grabbed me by my mind when I heard him say “. . . change your energy”.

I did. My moment of self-pity ended abruptly when I chose a different attitude. I decided that I did not want to feel agitated and frustrated, so I chose a different kind of attitude. I was excited and somewhat surprised that I managed to switch my attitude in a wink of an eye.

Attitude, just like a sneeze, is contagious. Not only did I fill my mind with negative thoughts, but I also influenced those around me, directly and in a negative way.

Yes, this is a true story. Years of reading, informal research about the brain, the mind, choices, and consciousness culminated in a moment, a single choice, and I changed my attitude.

I would like to challenge you to do the same. The next time you have negative thoughts and feelings, choose, choose a different path. Then, do it again, and again, and . . . again. Create new new habits of thought.

But first, we have to understand what an attitude is and how it transpires.

Caroline Leaf says: “An attitude is a cluster of thoughts with emotional flavour".

Another perspective from Joe Dispenza: “Your thoughts and feelings come from your past

memories. If you think and feel a certain way, you begin to create an attitude. An attitude is

a cycle of short-term thoughts and feelings experienced over and over again. Attitudes are

shortened states of being. If you string a series of attitudes together, you create a belief.

Beliefs are more elongated states of being and tend to become subconscious. When you

add beliefs together, you create a perception. Your perceptions have everything to do with

the choices you make, the behaviors you exhibit, the relationships you chose, and the realities

you create.”

Your choices are immensely powerful!

Create a different path, create new beliefs, create a new habit.
