Maria Botros and Marisa Peer, an award-winning therapist and bestselling author, emphasize that managing negative thoughts is crucial, since the emotions we feel are fundamentally shaped by the thoughts we hold in our minds.
- Marisa: Often times in certain situations, emotions defeat logic even if you’re completely safe
- It’s our job to fill our minds with better words and better thoughts to have a better life, says Marisa
- Marisa: The mind cannot hold conflicting beliefs, you have to keep your mind on the thought you want
- If you want to be the CEO of your mind, it only works in the present tense, and it likes to be excited with vivid words, says Marisa
