Imagine the sky. Big, wide, blue. Now imagine your thoughts are clouds passing across it. Some are light and puffy. Some are dark storm clouds. But here’s the thing—you are the sky, not the clouds. The clouds always pass. The sky stays.
When a negative thought shows up, you don’t have to fight it or grab onto it. Just notice it, like a cloud, and let it drift off to the side and disappear.
You can’t control the first thought that pops up. But you can control the second one—and every one after that. That’s where your power is.
