The Winner's Bible

I am reading a really interesting book at the moment ...
It has got some awesome strategies for addressing those negative thoughts we all have.

The book is The Winner's Bible, by Dr. Kerry Spackman
One point that he goes over is the repetition of thoughts about a complicated issue you're struggling with.
To overcome these unproductive repetitions he gives you 5 things to do:
  • Identify each unique thought
  • Write the thoughts down in order and give them a number
  • Underneath each thought, write down all possible answers
  • Identify the most likely conclusion to each thought
  • Whenever a thought pops into your mind, recognize it, say its number and remind yourself of the conclusion - you no longer need worry about that issue because you've already reached a conclusion
For some more information you can always look up their website, but I would also recommend you read the book! It has lots of valuable tips around your mindset and how to use this to its full advantage.
