Episode 28 - Who Is In Control? You, or Your Thoughts?

 

I’ve realized something really important ....
You can either be controlled by your thoughts, or you can create a space so they don’t control you.

That one shift changes everything.

 

I use a very simple framework called STORY.
It’s not complicated—it’s just a way of noticing.

  • What’s actually happening
  • What I’m telling myself about it
  • How that makes me feel
  • How I respond
  • And what that creates

It’s just helping you see the pattern.

Because most of the time… we’re reacting to the story in our mind, not just the situation itself.

 

I had a moment today that reminded me why this matters so much.

I was told about a situation… and almost immediately, I could feel it start.

My thoughts shifted.
They started going in a negative direction.

I could feel the anxiety rise…
frustration building…
and even a little bit of anger.

And right along with that came the urge…to react.

To call.
To fix it.
To clear it up right away.

That’s been my pattern for a long time.

🌿 THE SHIFT

But today, something was different.

I paused.

I didn’t immediately react.
I didn’t try to fix the situation right away.

And I also didn’t try to force myself to think something different.

Instead…

I just gave my mind a moment to breathe.

Instead of trying to force a new thought,
I gave my mind something steady to focus on and align with.
