“Just like in the real world, the world in our minds is real. You cannot have both positive and negative thoughts at the same time. Negativity brings us down when we should actually be enjoying life and getting the most out of it. Mental de-cluttering is really about getting rid of your worries, bad memories, fears and disappointments, and starting on a new footing where the past doesn’t matter. You decide on what you are going to carry with you to a new and better life.   Remember, the more the baggage you carry with you, the more difficult life would be. Focus more on the things you have control over; if you cannot handle something now forget about it altogether.”

“Don't say: I am so depressed. Do Say: I have the mind of Christ and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding.   Don't say: I just can't stop this bad habit. Do Say: I am not tempted or tried above that which I am able to overcome. I am more than a conqueror.”
― Lynn R. Davis, Deliver Me From Negative Self Talk

“Don't say: I can't help gossiping. My friends encourage it. Do Say: I will not participate in gossip. Corrupt communication brings destruction.”

“Don't say: I don't like people. I'd rather be alone, besides people are mean. Do Say: I have the compassion of Christ in my heart and I love all people.”
