Vol 1 # 9 Expunge those negative thoughts
Expunge. Now there is
a word for you. Zig Ziglar used to talk
about how expanding your vocabulary would increase your IQ. He gave practical advice for accomplishing
that by putting a dictionary in the bathroom and making a point to read from it
with every visit. In a similar vein, I
personally subscribe to one of the word of the day email lists from a
dictionary publisher. The word that
popped up was expunge. While I was aware
of the use of the word from a legal perspective, I still took the time to read
all the definitions. I was immediately
struck by the 3rd definition “to eliminate from one’s consciousness”
(M-W’s Word of the Day <[email protected]>).
From a practical application on your journey to Better Than Good and Improving™, think
about expunging those negative thoughts that barge into your day. As you rid them from your conscious mind,
over time they will disappear from your unconscious mind also. Imagine how wonderful your life will be when
you can sweep away the negatives as easily as you sweep away the dust on your
desk. Start expunging those negatives
today and you too will be Better Than Good
and Improving™.
