Reframe

We tell ourselves these stories falling victim to our own brainwashing; so comfortable resting in insecurities and fear or being happy as the guest of honor at our own pity party, that we use our own tongue and mind to kill ourselves. Doubt being our greatest deception; we would rather lie to self than face a hard truth. Let's take something simple like gym shoes. I personally buy gym shoes on an average of every five years or so and never spend over fifty dollars, somehow I've convinced myself that I don't deserve a pair of hundred dollar shoes even if it means a better work out, reduced injury and more support. If I reframe my thoughts I would understand that the more expensive shoe is a quality investment into my health. Learning to lead with a positive will reduce the amount of negative words and energy you allow out or in your circle. This will also enhance the quality of your life, being a downer you find yourself drowning in pessimism; depressed by your own misery. Reframe those thoughts, actions and deeds and you will find a picture worth hanging from your walls.
