ITS YOUR THOUGHTS THAT CREATE YOUR OWN PAIN
Have you ever wondered why some days feel like battles before they've even begun? The answer lies not in your circumstances, but in your thinking.We hold the steering wheel of our minds daily, with our thoughts determining whether we move toward success or remain chained to pain and defeat. Pain begins not in our circumstances but in our thinking
Life is waiting for you each day and you have to prepare for each challenge along the way towards success. It's not simple, but it can be done. Welcome to my Common Sense Motivation episodes. I'm Chris Fantastic Powell. This is dedicated to Dan and Claire, and from the late, who I called Mr K, whose phrase still echoes in our lives it's your thoughts that create your own pain.
Speaker 1:Every day, when you wake up, you're holding the steering wheel of your mind. Your thoughts are the engine, the fuel and the direction. What you choose to dwell on will either push you toward peace and success or chain you to pain and defeat. Pain doesn't begin in your circumstances. It begins in your thinking. If you tell yourself you're not good enough, life will echo that back. If you repeat to yourself that you can't, your actions will follow that command. But when you decide that you can, that you will and that your life is worth living with purpose, then even obstacles will become stepping stones. Success and failure don't start outside of you. They're planted first in your mind. Happiness isn't waiting in some faraway moment. It begins right now, in how you choose to see today. So guard your thoughts like treasure. Refuse to give space to the lies of fear, doubt or negativity. Speak life into your own heart. Think in the direction of growth, of joy and of possibilities, because the truth is simple the thoughts you choose today will build the life you live tomorrow. Here's a story Daniel and the two seeds.
Speaker 1:Daniel woke up every morning with the same battle. On one side of his mind, there was a voice whispering you're not good enough, you'll fail again, or even why try? On the other side, a quieter voice spoke you can, you're capable, just keep moving. For years, daniel fed the first voice. He let the negative thoughts grow like weeds and they choked out his confidence, his happiness and his progress. He lived in pain, not because life was cruel, but because his own thoughts built a prison around him. One morning, tired of feeling trapped, daniel made a choice. He said out loud no more. He decided to feed the other side, the one that spoke of hope and potential. Every day, he watered that seed with new thoughts I will succeed, I will rise. I am stronger than my fears.
Speaker 1:At first, nothing seemed to change, but over time the weeds of doubt grew weaker and the seed of belief grew stronger. His actions followed his thoughts. He worked with focus, he smiled again, he built momentum and soon the pain he once carried was replaced with life filled with progress, joy and purpose. The truth Daniel discovered is the same truth for you. Your thoughts are the seeds Pain or purpose, failure or success. It's what you choose to plant and water every single day. Your greatest enemy isn't outside of you. It's the thoughts you choose to believe and remember. It's your thoughts that create your own pain. Make it happen. I'm Chris Fantastic Powell.
