    2. Is it absolutely true?
    3. How do I feel when I have this thought?

    5. What is the opposite of the original thought?

    Where the thoughts came from (everywhere!)
    Thoughts lie
    You can absorb stuff as a child from your parent and it can be an absolute lie!!
    Specially negative thoughts so challenge them!!!
    You may thing them so heavily eg. You're ugly but it's as a result of eg. Your mum telling you when you were 7 even when you were perfectly beautiful! And because you never challenged it it manifested and grew in your life into a full fledged belief as you continued to justify it and let this lie grow!

    That makes sense for that. But what if it's absolutely true and there is nothing you can do to change the circumstance or make it better?

    what if ANTS are about another person and its hard to answer first 2 questions as they may not be telling the truth ?

      So that's why there's the second question... is it absolutely true. We aren't our thoughts, but our thoughts control our feelings and then our behaviors. You can do something one time and not be that thing. It doesn't make you a bad person absolutely because you hurt someone one time, for example.

      It’s difficult. But if you can focus 100 percent on the present moment you can get moments of freedom from the minds compulsive thinking.

      Replace each negative thought with a positive thought and make practice of the same and it is not much difficult

    • @CoachSteve4u
      @CoachSteve4u Рік тому +10

      From a more metaphysical/spiritual perspective, it's your thoughts that create reality. So, basically, negative thoughts and positive thoughts create the circumstances, events, and people in our lives. When you view it this way, you can make any thought come true.
      Choose the good ones from now on... And for past negative thoughts/events, do EFT for the emotional intensity and let it go. Don't ever beat yourself up for it. We have all been programmed to not understand that we create our own reality.
      So, in other words, it's okay and preferable to not face reality - instead, create it!

      ​​@@CoachSteve4u do we actually create our own reality, or does reality create us?
      Why so much suffering in some people's lives, I'm sure people don't consciously choose suffering but circumstances keep them stuck,' ( lol me anyways)

      @@CoachSteve4u That’s a load of BS. When I was 8 my dad and 2 brothers were killed in an accident, devastating my family. Shame on me for making that happen with my negative thoughts, right? I did avoid the feelings I couldn’t handle, for about 5 years, but the time came to cope with reality. Escapism has its place in survival, but you can’t just live that way, pretending away negative realities, much less bear the weight of believing that negative circumstances are a result of your negative thoughts.
