"The Secret" First Aid Kit

Today I really needed my "Secret" First Aid Kit. I got pretty far off track from focusing on what I WANT in my life, including my New Job, and spent some useless time thinking about what I didn't want.

To help get my thoughts back to where I wanted them, I decided to list all of the many ways I've come up with for reminding myself to keep my thoughts centered on my fabulous life. Here's what's in my "Secret" First Aid Kit:

• Writing a journal entry multiple times during the day.
• Taking a moment to visualize and really "feel" what I want in my life.
• Writing this daily disciplined blog post.
• Reading the inspirational posts on "The Secret" Facebook page daily...really love it.
• Viewing the Positive Thoughts videos on Facebook and Following lots of inspirational people on Twitter.
• Talking together about our positive goals at work, at the start of any department meeting.
• Listening to "The Secret" book on CD.
• Watching "The Secret" movie on DVD.
• Taping index cards in strategic locations around the house - on my alarm clock, on bathroom mirrors, in the kitchen - that remind me about what I WANT in my life.
• Catching myself when necessary and turning my thoughts around to focus on what I WANT; sometimes, this involves talking out loud to myself!
• Thinking about only the present moment whenever possible; chances are, in that moment, I am probably pretty happy.

This is a good list of options to turn to whenever I wound myself with negative thoughts. These are the bandages, medicine, and salve for my mind, soul, and spirit.
