Trade Up: Feelings

Assignment # 21 Trade Up

Here's what the assignment is about for this session.

Paying attention to how you feel is most important because your feelings are a barometer for the types of thoughts that are dominating your mind. Your thoughts produce your feelings.

Do you want to feel differently?
If yes, then you need to change your thoughts. You need to trade up.

This week, pay attention to how you're feeling while you're journaling, or think about a series of feelings you've had like: anger, sadness, anxiety, fear, happiness, joy, etc. within the last 24 hours.

What are you (or were you) thinking that produced those feelings? If those thoughts and subsequent feelings are negative, trade up.

Replace them with thoughts that allow you to feel slightly better, focus on them, and journal your new feelings based on your new, positive, empowering thoughts.

Once you are at a slightly better place, keep trading up and keep climbing the ladder of better feeling thoughts one rung at a time.

Some Of My Thoughts:I got this assignment later than I had expected. I didn't pay too much attention to my feelings today.  I'll try to at least note something about my feelings during this week.

May we learn to know what's best of us when we are going through things in life. May we learn to see the better side of things. May the LORD comfort us as we live out our days. Amen.

Thanks for reading.
