It Starts With Peace of Mind

If you want peace, stop fighting. If you want peace of mind, stop fighting with your thoughts. – Peter McWilliams

As much as I’d like to get all philosophical and figure out how we could stop fighting and have peace, that will have to wait for another day.  Today I want to talk about the inner dialogues we have with ourselves.  Yes I do mean dialogues, because at least with myself, my inner monologues turn into full on fights with myself.  Most of those conversations/fights usually start out with my contemplating doing something that I’m uncertain about, and I’m either trying to talk myself into it, or out of it. I’m usually doing this because I’m not trusting my intuition.

Intuition is pretty cool, and I think we’re all pretty insightful.  But we don’t listen to ourselves the way we should.  That’s where the inner dialogue comes in and we fight with ourselves and destroy our peace of mind. The very best thing we can do for ourselves is listen to that inner voice, intuition, or gut; whatever you want to call it.  Listen to it, and trust it.  Stop fighting with your thoughts, because there is only one way to have happier, more positive you. It starts with peace of mind.
