about negative thoughts.

"it is so hard to remain in my desired state and feel convinced… i keep having negative thoughts that pop out of the blue and just completely throw me off. i feel irritated, confused and i wonder if i'm truly living in the end. what do i do? how do i flip every thought? am even i doing this right?"

let’s talk about it!

thoughts and states.

in my latest post "dominant thoughts and dwelling states" or my "states" post, i have already talked about what states and thoughts are, how they "function" and what the difference between the two is. here is a short summary:

thoughts come from your state.

your dominant thoughts give insight to your state.

your dominant thoughts equal your dwelling state.

intrusive thoughts, as long as not identified with, don’t manifest.

your state manifests, not your single thoughts.

you are not your state, you are your "i am".

there is an infinite number of states.

you enter and exit states all day long.

now, you know that thoughts can only manifest if you assume them to be true, making them your dwelling state. but even if you know all of this, it still may not stop you from having undesirable thoughts here and there. so, how do we deal with them?

about all thoughts.

now, let's take a look at the characteristics of thoughts.

all thoughts are neutral. negative thoughts, just like positive ones, don’t have any meaning pre-assigned to them. they are all neutral until you categorise them to positive or negative. meaning, they are the exact same.

… therefore, thoughts don’t hold any power. thoughts don’t have any truth attached to them. no state has. because you are not your state. you are your i am. you decide what’s truthful to you or not, which state you want to occupy and which thoughts you want to have. your thoughts look at YOU for validation.

all thoughts are equal. because of that, negative thoughts aren’t easier to manifest than positive ones. all thoughts hold the same "value" or no value at all. they are all equally easy to manifest.

all thoughts are temporary. and thus, all states are as well. especially intrusive thought’s come from a place of fear, uncertainty and insecurity. who is feeling all those? who is controlling all those? YOU. you are not as out of control as you may think. just like you can alter a thought, you can alter the very origin of it — your state. you dictate your state and your thoughts.

all thoughts are yours. imagination creates reality, meaning creation comes from you. all thoughts and furthermore all states stem from your own awareness. there is no need to feel intimidated by them!

step by step resolution.

1 · emotion · this is the first thing we will do whenever we have a very mean thought — so mean, it makes it hard for you to change it on the spot or ignore it: we let ourselves feel the way that thought makes us feel. some thoughts, you can choose not to absorb but rather observe. however, if you do absorb them (which can definitely happen), make sure to embrace them. let out all the emotions they make you feel. express them. talk to a friend, scream into the void, bawl out your eyes… whatever helps your nervous system to relieve and regulate. you are not meant to internalise all that negativity.

2 · reflection · reflect on your unfavourable thoughts. ask yourself "is this thought helping me? do i want to continue thinking this? does this do me any good?". if yes, keep thinking it. if not, stop thinking it, forget it and correct it.

⋮ 2 · attention · some thoughts don’t need to be corrected for them to not affect you negatively. some of them can be entirely ignored and disregarded. not every little thought needs to be investigated. you don’t need to monitor every thought of yours. let them pass you by. don’t assign any meaning to them. renounce them. learn to be indifferent to certain thoughts. take your attention away from them. sometimes, that's enough. because some thoughts need to be dealt with a certain level of neglect. otherwise you will only drive yourself insane. ⋮

3 · identification · realise where the thought is coming from. most likely, it’s coming from your limited human self. but you are your unbounded god self. return to it! you have what you want and you are who you want to be. stop contemplating on your unwanted circumstances and focus on your end. continue to live from there. don’t just think of it, embody it. fully claim it. it’s your end. your reality. change the direction of your thoughts and remind yourself of your actual identity — GOD.

in short, feel your emotions, reflect on your thoughts, abandon negative thoughts, declare them as wrong and replace them with positive ones, remember your desired version of self, embody it and persist.

important.

before you go, there is one last thing i want to touch on. changing your thoughts, distancing yourself from unfavourable situations and trying to persist while feeling triggered by something external… can be very challenging. what i mean is, it takes determination, dedication and discipline. you need to be courageous and eager enough to make tough decisions, to choose your ending of the story and side with YOURself, even when you actually want to. but it’s possible. it’s attainable. it’s doable. you know what you want and you are going to continue to live your truth, with conviction and commitment!

you will do it. and you will succeed.

with love, ella.

in the moments...

...when the negativity talks louder inside your mind than your thoughts and it gets difficult to ground yourself, you're still you.

don't hate that version of yourself. even if it feels like you're doing it to yourself on purpose. you're not a bad person.

you're a person who's struggling and that's all. give yourself as much kindness as you can and if the most that you can do is be less harsh on yourself, that's okay too.

your empathy is best used on yourself. you deserve that support too ✨

How to shush your negative/intrusive thoughts

Whenever I had intrusive thoughts, I would contradict them one by one: it drained me and it didn't seem like it was working.

So I tried paying no attention to those thoughts and just robotic affirming my 1 to 2 affirmations, and this method proved to be the best way to get rid of my intrusive thoughts.

Another thing you can do is writing your affirmations while robotic affirming or robotic affirming out loud (or all at the same time you do you hahah), because it is really difficult to think one thing and write or say another.

I hope this post helped you, you can do this and remmember: you already have everything you want 🍀

I just successfully dealt with feeling myself slip into negative thought patterns by imagining I was racing in Mario Kart and had to take a quick turn into an alternative path to A) avoid being red-shelled and B) not stray into the negative thought pattern.

How to fight a negative thought

As always, I will love to hear your thoughts! and if you have any questions, I will be more than happy to answer them! If you liked it, leave a comment or reblog (that is always appreciated!). if you are intrested in more method check the masterlist!

(Before we start, I want to actually suggest a book by Dr. . Julie Smith, "Why has nobody told me this before?" It is filled with tools that we can use to fight our mind when we know it is not acting right.)

Im going straight to the point here: negative thoughts can be frustrating. When it comes to manifestation, there is no difference, so with this, I am going to teach you how to deal with negative thoughts and reprogram your brain. 

The negative thoughts are normal in every person there, for in every community, it is normal to experience a bad thought, and sometimes a bad thought can ruin our lives and slow us down for a whole day. In this post, I'm going to give you a list of things that can help you realize a bad state of mind. When we want to start to realize these little things, we can catch them with way more ease than our negative thoughts.

Let's start with baby steps:

Our mood is influenced by our thoughts, and vice versa.

Give your negative thoughts logic. If you can't find logic, then why worry? ex: "Everybody hates me." In the logic, it will be "I am my own person, and the price to pay is that I am not going to be loved by everyone, and I can literally name who loves me."

Write about it, talk about it, and let your negative thoughts go. Don't let them stay inside of you because they will stagnate and produce mold like rotten fruit.

Don't search for temporary distractions for a long-term problem; feel it, cry if you need to, and have knowledge of what made you feel bad.

The more you realize your negative thoughts and what triggers them, the easier it will be to replace them and change the story.

Now some hard truths:

Our emotions lie to us; our emotions aren't 100% truth.

We choose to be happy or sad, and what we do about it is our fault.

You are your own brain; you can control your thoughts.

Our first reaction to a negative thought is fear, because we are scared that it might be the truth.

What do I have to do with all this information?

Witness your negative thoughts, own them, and stop them by making positive remarks.

Be patient with yourself; you are learning, you are healing, you are living your life, and you are allowed to make mistakes.

Witness your positive thoughts, own them, and give yourself the credit that you need.

All your manifestations are coming your way, and you are going to live the best life ever. Allow yourself to be and exist.

Oh hey, laying down and thinking has made my brain starts shaming me for what's happened in the OITTB rp blog because "what the fuck are you doing? You're ripping it away from what it's supposed to be, you idiot."

Haven't felt this in a while. Completely forgot this happened to me when I get comfortable.

Ugh, depression and anxiety suck. I finally start getting truly comfortable with something I'm doing with another person, and then the minute my brain can, it's bringing me back to the beginning where I'm scared to even say "hi" out of anxiety that I'll be annoying. And of course my "solution" to this is directly asking people related, which is literally what I become scared to do.

And it's not something exclusive to RP blogs and the like. I've had this happen multiple times with just being myself in a discord server.

How can you share your experiences if you hide away?

Go, get out! Do something! It's not too late... It certainly isn't easy, BUT it is possible.
