I harm or heal myself One thought at a time. I discover myself and others One thought at a time. I live my life One thought at a time.

My telephone rings, I choose a thought. I choose to choose from among the many positive thoughts. A connection with the outside world. A friend. A client. Information. Happy News. Appreciation. Technology. An answer.

Negative thoughts are just as plentiful, I have explored those thoughts, too. Negative thoughts pair up with negative feelings. Negative feelings do not feel good. And so in the middle of a cacophony of negative thoughts, I find the least negative thought, It is a lifeline out of the negativity. That one thought helps me find a slightly positive thought, And then a truly positive thought. One thought at a time.

I do not leap to joy in the midst of disaster, I move myself there, One thought at a time. From fear or despair, I move to joy through many thoughts, One thought at a time. From mild irritation, I move to joy in a few thoughts, One thought at a time.

Images of explosions invoke in me Feelings of horror and thoughts of injustice. O

f all the possible sad thoughts, I choose The one that is the least sad. I breathe. From that less sad thought, I choose a slightly more positive thought. I have a right to choose a more negative thought, But that makes me more sad, so I move the other way, One thought at a time.

I am gentle with myself. When I find myself in the midst of unhappy thoughts, I move myself out of the unhappiness One thought at a time. I move myself to happiness One thought at a time.

I do this everyday, Many times a day, One thought at a time.
