    Great message here. Tips: Begin each day by emptying out the negative. How? This works for me:

    1) Relaxed mind/body/breathing. No distractions. Be alone

    2) Think of your mind as an empty container.

    3) go through every thought you have 1 by 1 and put into container until it’s full (no more thoughts)

    3) what thoughts are negative?

    4) pull out one of the negative thoughts. Tell yourself “I don’t need you (fill in blank) weighing me down today.” Visualize Removing it from the container.

    5) this step is crucial and takes practice/repition. After removing a thought hold it outside of the container for a brief moment and visualize it dissolving/fading away as if it just got deleted from a hard drive. You’re deleting this file and no longer give it permission to occupy any form of space today.

    6) repeat every morning. Practice on the deletion of thoughts until it becomes no different then deleting a file.

    7) if you’re still having some trouble, ask yourself. Am I keeping a recycle bin? You’ll also know if it’s working. There will be newfound clarity, creativeness, passion, joy that will occupy the new room left in the container. God will finally have room to send the messages he’s been wanting to send you for a long time. 🙏
