What to do with your negative thoughts

Our thoughts powerfully impact our lives—but we don't always pay enough attention to what we're telling ourselves. In this episode, we’ll take a look at four distinct categories of thoughts: those that are both true and helpful, those that might not be proven but serve us well, those that are true but get in our way, and those that are neither true nor helpful.I even made you a cool decision tree worksheet to help you apply these concepts to your own thoughts and move forward with more clarity and confidence.Key TakeawaysRemember that not all true thoughts are helpful—reframing them can better support your growth.Keep an eye out for absolute statements like "always" or "never;" these are red flags for cognitive distortions.Thoughts that are neither true nor helpful can be safely disregarded.Building your "True and Helpful Thought Library" can help keep you focused on your growth and progress. Mentioned in this EpisodeDecision Tree WorksheetEpisode #156: How to Overcome Your Resistance to ChangeWorkbook/Listening Guide: 8 Things You Need to Create Positive Change Interested in having Monica present at your next live or virtual event?  Learn more. ★ Support this podcast ★
