“Don’t Believe Everything You Think.” By Joseph Nguyen. Also an incredibly powerful book. A thought is only a thought until you give it breath to become thinking. “Thinking is the beginning and end of suffering.” Are you ready to stop allowing negative thinking to dictate your life and start thriving?
Finally, he found one — a man awaiting ex*****on in the electric chair.
The scientist offered the condemned man an alternative: to take part in a psychological experiment. The method, he said, would be simple — a small cut on the wrist, allowing the blood to drain slowly, drop by drop. Death, he promised, would be painless. Peaceful. The prisoner, desperate to avoid the electric chair, agreed.
He was laid on a stretcher, strapped down so he couldn’t move. A shallow incision was made — just enough to feel real — and a small metal bowl was placed beneath his arm. Beneath the bed, the scientist set up a bottle of serum with a valve that released liquid, drop by drop, into the bowl.
The prisoner heard each drop and believed it was his own blood leaving his body. Slowly, the scientist began reducing the flow, creating the illusion that his “blood” was thinning.
As time passed, the prisoner grew pale. His heart pounded. His breath came in short, panicked bursts. Finally, when the scientist closed the valve completely, the prisoner’s body gave out. He suffered a heart attack — and died.
The experiment had proven one chilling truth: the human mind believes what it perceives. What we accept as real — whether positive or negative — shapes our entire being, both mentally and physically.
The mind has no limits when it deceives itself. And when it can’t understand something, it invents its own truth — often mistaking the natural for the supernatural.
In life, we often face obstacles that seem impossible to overcome. Someone might tell us there’s no hope — and if we believe it, that belief becomes our reality.
“He who thinks of failure has already failed.
He who thinks of victory is already one step ahead.”

Channeling Anton Ego from the movie Ratatouille. “A little perspective” is what he asked for not realizing what was to become of it. His entire worldview changed with one bite. All it takes is a subtle shift to create big change!

The most common symptom of anxiety is the ability to overthink. I hear it all the time. “My brain just won’t shut off.” “Then I went into the spiral.” “I went straight down that rabbit hole.” Protection is the reward, all the while ripping apart your security and sense of self. We try to control every aspect in order to save ourselves the pain of the unknown but the real control comes from within to stop the thoughts before they become a way of thinking.
Suggested book to read: “The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F**k” by Mark Manson.
Watch until the end! It’s literally the blueprint to regulation! And yes, it can be controlled, yes it takes practice, and yes no one is perfect!!!
