Coaching Corner: Release Those Stinky Thinky Thoughts

Christian believers are not immune from thinking negative. In a culture that routinely expects the possible from the impossible, that’s hard to believe. We sometimes demand that “perfection” (whatever that is) is the goal.

The fact is nobody – believer or not – is perfect! We all fall. The difference for believers, though, is that when we fall, when we become victim to negative thinking, we have the grace to recover.

When we find ourselves thinking ‘stinky’ thoughts, we have the power to release those thoughts and, in the words of the Apostle Paul, think in a “more excellent way” (I Corinthians 12:14).

“Stinky thinky” thinking is the negative loop of bad thinking which keeps you broke, disgusted and behind on your dreams! Experts suggest 60-80,000 thoughts pass through our brains on a daily basis. Shockingly, up to 90% of those thoughts are carried over from yesterday. Even more shocking, up to 80% of those thoughts are NEGATIVE.

Watch your thoughts!
