85: Confidence - Part 1

DENTAL BRAIN CROPS - with Chelsea Myers

If you don’t have a current practice of thinking about your thinking, that’s where we want to start. We want to become aware of the thousands of ideas going on in our brains all day, every day – and just…kind of…observe them

When we’re growing up, most of us are taught how to think – what to do, what not to do, if we’re good or bad based on what we do… all of the things that the well-meaning adults in our lives say to us and try to teach us.

As we are growing, we hear thoughts, often in the voice of someone we have decided holds the authority to tell us how to view ourselves – we may hear thoughts of criticism in the voice of a parent, or hear thoughts of correction in the tone of a teacher

As these types of critiques repeat in our lives and in our minds, they become programmed – they become patterned ways of thinking about ourselves.

As we get older, the voice in our head starts to shift from a parent or teacher’s voice to our own voice.

Which makes the thoughts that we have even more believable – because they sound like ourselves.

Sometimes we have pretty good ideas – ones that are aligned with where we want to grow – that motivate us, and other times, our ideas lack any hint of utility.

It is incredibly important that rather than believing our thoughts – or assuming they’re real, merited, or justified – that we take a step back – as a regular, conscious practice – and just think about our thinking and decide – as we notice our ideas – if those ideas truly serve us.

Not if the idea is provable, not if you’re sure it’s true, but if it is actually a beneficial thing to think about.
