Survey - #1 Question You Had

Wow, I want to thank everyone who participated in the survey. Remember the question was, “What is your biggest question about the voice in your head that criticizes you and beats you up, that berates you, that constantly dwells on the worst case scenario, that won’t shut up?”

Now I realize that is a bit of a loaded question because it does presuppose that there is such a voice that is up to no good in your head. But what was the number one question that people had about it? By far and away the number one question the people who took the survey had about the voice in their head was, how do I get it to stop? Now people had various takes on the question. Some were oriented more toward controlling it, some were more interested in mastering it.

It turns out ironically enough that you cannot control it and you cannot stop it, but you can master it! How can that be? How can you master it without making it stop? Well, I just finished writing a book about that called Mastering Thought (Before it masters You!). And I will be teaching you how to master thought through the practice of Witness Thought Transformation during a free teleclass on November 6th.

The voice in your head is a biological function that we have mistaken for ourselves. Now you cannot stop digestion, or perspiration for obvious reasons. We cannot expect to stop thinking for those same reasons. But we can become the master of thought by thoroughly understanding it and putting it in it proper place. That is what I want to teach you during the teleclass.

Stay tuned for the next installment of my blog where I will discuss the number two question that people had. And in a way, the number two question is far more interesting than the number one question!
