Cancel, Cancel

William Michael Forbes




All negative thinking creates negative behaving...unless you can let it go or change it. wmf

A Well Known Fact: your body’s chemistry can change in an instant from toxic, to healing and then from healing to toxic...it all depends on what we eat, dring and think.

Okay...it’s a rare day and I’ve slept in by eight minutes longer than I wanted to...the effects are a change in my morning routine, yet I remain aware of how the thoughts in my mind are responding to my thinking about being a little behind...even the slightest negative thought creates emotions that move my consciousness towards a negative emotional state and this interferes with the building of positive momentum.

All of us have done this...hit the snooze button, watch that little bit if extra T.V., stay on the computer a little longer than we need only to and then find we’ve gotten a little behind in our schedule. Depending on what we do with that little change in our schedule, it can help us move along and hook us back up with our positive vibes, or we can continue in a downwards spiral of expletives and complaints about how the world isn’t working the way we’d like it to....and most of the negativity started out as a little negative thought that we paid little or no attention to and yet when allowed to go on automatically can grow into an insanity that causes us to scratch our heads and go “What the...?”

Today’s How to be happy in fifteen minutes or less is about a simple and easy way I learned how to short circuit negative thinking in its tracks. It was something one of my mentors, Dr. William Curry, whom I called Bill, taught me years ago. He said whenever you get a negative thought coming into your mind...before it gets an emotional response from your subconscious mind just think or say out loud the following words with authority....”CANCEL, CANCEL”...say it as many times as you need to until the negative thought is cancelled, then move your attention to the thought that you would like to see expressed in your life at that time. For me the thought that I was going to be late and miss my morning coffee, was causing irritation and so in my mind I began thinking, cancel, cancel, cancel...then I spoke out aloud saying, I’m perfectly timed, everything is in perfect order, and as I shifted focus traffic began to move faster and smother, and I reached the destination on time. Which brings us to today activity on, How to be happy in fifteen minutes or less.

Today spend one or two minutes each hour during the next seven hours, and when you catch a negative thought or idea that would be something that you’d rather not experience, take a slow, deep breath and as you exhale think the thought; “Cancel, Cancel” with conviction and authority, then inset a thought or idea that best reflects the result that you would like to get.

For example, you have a thought it won’t work out, think cancel, cancel, with authority and conviction and then choose the thought, this is going to work perfectly and positively. Or you might think so and so is going to give me a hard time, then think, cancel, cancel with authority and conviction and then choose the thought; we are going to work in a way that makes us feel good together. These are examples I thought of now to help out, you can use these and make up a bunch of your own to match the circumstances of where you are at any moment throughout your day and...


Have a great day!
