In this episode, Jason shares how changing your thoughts can change your life. He gives practical tips that will help us get our minds going in the right direction. Transformation starts in the mind. Neuroplasticity - the ability of the brain to change CONTINUOUSLY throughout an individual's life Neural pathways - patterns of THOUGHT. It's like walking across grass and making a pathway. The m ore you walk it, more defined it gets. The more YOU THINK a certain way, the easier it is TO CONTINUE to think that way. We have to intentionally Fight Toxic Thoughts -- negative thoughts, critical thoughts, fearful thoughts, discontented thoughts, destructive thoughts, etc. Accoring to health.com Toxic thoughts can actually make you physically SICK . If u don't control what you THINK , you’ll never control what u DO . Most BATTLES are won or lost in the MIND . Our thoughts don’t naturally take us in the right direction.

You are not a HELPLESS VICTIM of your thinking. You can’t help what thoughts come to your mind, but you can decide what u allow to stay there. You will FIND what you're LOOKING FOR . Where u point the SPOTLIGHT of ur thoughts determines the DIRECTION of ur life. Your thoughts are taking u somewhere. Don’t complain about your life if your thought life wallows in the trash.

Our thoughts shape our lives. The LIFE YOU HAVE is a reflection of the THOUGHTS U THINK . Change may take time. Old ways of thinking die hard. But the more we form the right pathways, more they become the default. And the longer we stay off of the wrong pathways, in time, grass grows back. What toxic thts are poisoning you? Whatever it is, don’t just try to ignore it; name it. You can’t DEFEAT what u can’t DEFINE . What is the toxic thought in your mind? It really is the thought that counts.
