Stress Center Peer Support

This is something I have been observing for the past couple of months and how it works I do not know but it does.

Silly little thoughts that come true. This has happened so many times to me over the years it can't be coincidence. You can usually recognize these little thoughts, They pop into your head without any thought, You know these thoughts, they usually start with EG "I bet such and such will happen" They pop into your head and you don't notice them and you pay no attention to them but some how that little thought of "I bet I loss my job" Has come true!

Now if we focus on these negative thoughts IE you say to a mate EG "I bet I will fail so why bother" you are consciously paying attention to this thought and focusing on it it won't happen. Its the little spontaneous thoughts that seem to come true.

In the same way if you say to yourself "I wish I won the lottery" and you sit focusing on it, it wont happen. But again if you get one of these little thoughts that you pay not attention to 9/10 it will happen, Its almost like a telepathy type thing and how it work I don't know, Its the same as you are thinking about say a song, it just pops into your head for no reason at all and you just happen to put on the radio on there it is playing, but if you sit and think about a song, hoping it will come on the radio it wont.

Can anyone relate to this?

Yep,

Happens to me all the time,frustrating,but I still ignore it !

I know exactly what you mean. Happens all the time. I just started the course and am already starting to figuring certain things out.
I thought about what you had written and it struck me, people get worried or freaked out about a dream that comes true(I know I've done that) but I believe we dream on average 7 times per night. Now multiply that by 364 nights and you get 2548 dreams per year! I just turned 45 so multiple 2548 times 45. You get 114,660 dreams to date! Really no surprise that some dreams do happen. Now I believe the dvd mentioned some people have up to 300 negative thoughts per day (I think you see where I'm going with this) that means that some people can have up to 109,500 negative thoughts per year! I know this sounds like a simplistic answer but when you put it into the overall picture, it's really not surprising that some of those thoughts do happen.
This is one thing that I'm really going to work on and not let it conrtol my life.
I'm thankfull I ordered this program because it is really opening up my eyes to a lot of things that were wrong in my life and that there is a way to fix the problem.
Here's to life!

Thank you custodial junky...what you said makes so much sense. That should give us all a little relief.
