It is natural to have concerns. My concerns can help me identify worry and anxiety. By recognizing my concerns I can take actions to soothe my nerves and eliminate doubts.

Each concern I have is a thread. These threads occasionally enter my mind. When I ignore my concerns, I create an untidy and unmanageable tangle of threads.

I can take control of my life by addressing my concerns and organizing my thoughts. This allows me to loosen the threads, untangle them, and see each strand clearly.

By seeing my concerns as individual threads, I can manage them effectively. This allows me to be objective. I am able to organize my worries and address them in a practical way. I see where each concern begins and where it ends. I assess the value each concern may have in my life. Once I recognize my fears, I choose to move beyond them.

My mind is unburdened by the release of unnecessary and unhelpful worries. Eliminating troublesome concerns from my head is as easy as pulling a loose sting from my mind and throwing it to the wind. Organizing my thoughts and ridding myself of unproductive concerns is liberating.

Since I am in control of my thoughts, I do not allow my concerns to become an unmanageable jumble in my mind. I refuse to accumulate anxiety, so I deal with concerns in a rational manner. This allows me the freedom to release my worries and eliminate negative thoughts.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. Have I ignored my concerns and allowed anxiety to accumulate in my mind?
2. Can I look at each concern separately and decide why I give this concern space in my mind?

My mind is my greatest priority, because it is the center of my creativity. By taking the time to clear it, I am opening myself up to new and better ideas.

Ideas rarely come to me full-blown and complete. I nurture them to maturity. The first step in this process involves getting rid of clutter in my mind so that I can recognize good ideas when they appear.

When I take the time to pause and clear my head, I am like a master gardener, tilling the soil to get rid of all that would hamper growth. I am creating an environment where seeds can germinate and flourish. I weed out thoughts that could crowd out my creativity or leech off my energy so that my best and brightest thoughts are allowed the richest ground possible in which to grow.

This is a conscious process. I choose to set aside time to center myself, to sift through my thoughts and to get rid of all that is not conducive to growth and productivity.

I actively choose to make time for self-reflection every day, because I know that this will allow my creative mind to flourish and will lead to greater productivity.
