Thoughts are a stream of consciousness that roams in the head often contrary to desires. A person cannot control everything that he thinks about, since thought is faster than action. But like a cabman, you can learn to guide them on the right track, pulling the bridle in time.

The thought is material. Thinking about not being late for an important meeting? Be sure to be late. Throw out of your head all thoughts with a particle of "not." If you climb a rock and say to yourself: "Do not look down, " you literally command yourself to look there. The promise to no longer fall into debt is fixed by consciousness as the desire to ask again for a loan.

So that thoughts do not interfere with life, try turning them into assistants. Hurry up for a meeting? Say you come on time. Love extreme? Command: "Look Up!" Think about money? Assure your own mind that you have enough money to buy everything that you would like to purchase. Replace every negative thought with a positive one. Practice now. Write on paper experiences that have been haunting lately. Think about what words you can change.

Read oriental literature and practice yoga. Try to meditate. If you are not close to such things, make a habit of sitting in complete silence daily for 15 minutes. The time of day to complete this exercise does not matter. Turn off your phone, music, turn off your computer. Stay alone for these 15 minutes. At first it will be difficult to completely get rid of thoughts, but to do this, just listen to the silence.

Keep a diary. It is a wonderful habit to free one’s head from harmful or inappropriate experiences swarming in one’s head. It is advisable to take notes in the morning. Write, not really thinking about the possible incoherence of the text. After all, this is how you free consciousness. If something doesn’t work, do not let “harmful” thoughts corrode the inner core. Communicate more with optimists, become an example of a strong-willed person.
