Since I've begun thinking about thoughts and how they effect reality, I've been thinking about different kinds of language. I've tackled "I can't" which is something I'll have to continue working on. This is an ongoing problem. Now, I need to jump from I'll try to I am.
No more, "I'll try to lose weight" or "I'll try to get a job" or I'll try to do, anything at all. Using the word try instead of am allows me the option to not do something. For instance, If I say, I'll try to do laundry today that means I have essentially given myself an out - if I feel lazy or get busy or whatever. But if I say I am going to do something then I don't give myself a linguistic out - and that leads to I DID it. Big or small.
Old thought: I'll try to get to my ideal weight.
New thought: I am going to get to my ideal weight.
The weight thing is important but not the only place I need to work on that. But I'm going to take it one thought at a time.
And again. The only failure is not trying.
