The quality of your life will never improve, unless the quality of your thoughts and words improve first.

3 January 2021

When you think it, and especially after you speak it, you have made it real. There are no exceptions to this truth. It’s impossible to keep secrets from the universe. There are no side comments or unheard thoughts in the world we live in. Complaining speaks into existence a miserable quality of life. Criticizing others speaks judgement and creates inferior perceptions in people you interact with. The universe knows us all as equal, and it knows no judgement of others, either. Foul language and sour words speak into existence friction and harshness into life. The universe only knows peace and it doesn’t use words to communicate. But the words and thoughts you use to describe life have a profound effect on the quality of your existence. But most of us don’t realize the destruction that words and thoughts can create. Wise sages, gurus, and spiritual teachers have preached this for thousands of years. Jesus, the Buddha, and many others understood the dangers of negative thoughts and words. But we still don’t get it. Words and thoughts can be like a cancer, eating away at the quality of life, festering misery that makes the very nature of life itself feel unwelcome and unfortunate.

Today is a great day to improve your life by improving your words and thoughts. This can be done with the flip of a switch. Be more mindful of what you choose to think and say. You don’t have to be attached to every little thing that pops into your mind – especially destructive thoughts! You don’t have to believe your thoughts, accept them, or live by them, particularly destructive ones that don’t serve you well. You also don’t have to speak words that pop off the “top of your head.” If you do, you’ll stumble over your words, you’ll contradict yourself, and you’ll author confusion. The universe is not an author of confusion. Listen to the words, as you speak them today. Take your time. These words that I write, at this moment, are appearing on the page, carefully. I don’t rush when I write. I drag the pen across the page and they appear. When I transfer them to the computer, I get even more detailed. Let your words flow, today. Speak and think productivity, love, joy, and wellness. Let your words and your thoughts be acceptable and good. The only way to increase your life’s quality is by thinking thoughts and speaking words that build, that encourage, and that create a bond between humans – never a division. Complaining and judging will never accomplish growth and fulfillment – never.
