Monkeys are cute , right ? Not the one in this week's BOLD LAW !!! ? " Don't listen to your monkey mind ! "
I think most people think monkeys are cute , interesting and fun to watch. Whether you see them live at the zoo or on a safari or on tv , they captivate us maybe because they remind of us ?
There is one monkey though , who is none of those things and we all know him. He's wild, incorrigible , a control freak , messy and dangerous !...and no one should like him...He is the crazy monkey running around in your brain ! He's telling you stupid thoughts and he's making you doubt what you can do ! He is holding you back and he could be ruining you and your dreams ! He is also known as your subconscious mind.
Just as you would never let an inebriated wild monkey loose in your house all day , why in the world do you let your subconscious thoughts run and possibly ruin your life ? Take control of that monkey now ! When you have a less than positive thought , catch it, give it no more life, throw it out the door and replace it with a better thought !
Yes, it's true that none of us can control our first thought because it's unconscious...it just pops into our head at any time . We can though , absolutely control the second ,third and fourth , and all the next thoughts that follow that one bad thought. That is something you can do. Use that power to control all the dumb things you think and say to yourself. They are no good to you.
Start this empowering process right now...yes , right now because you probably had a negative thought or two reading this , right ? It's ok, we're human. And we are the smartest species on the planet. So start acting like that smart person you are and take control of the wild monkey.... right now ! Your future depends on it ! ...more on this tomorrow !
