For the last week or two we have been working on unloading anything from our past that has been holding us back from our potential.  We are improving our self image so we can find out what our true potential is.  We need to get the black clouds out of the way.  If we had anger, hurts, resentment, pain, whatever it is we unloaded it and let it go!  Okay so we did it!  Yeah!  But now what?  What do we do now?  Well there is this gap where all this pain sat.  When we let go of something that has been controlling our lives (for some of us all our lives) if we don’t fill that gap with something new then the old creeps back in again – not only the old but the comfortable, the habit.  Yuk we do not want that again! 

So we want to consciously fill this gap.  We need to control what goes in it or other things will take over.  So time to make another list.  Sorry yes another list.  Make a gratitude list.  What are the things we have in our life that we are SO grateful for?  Who is in our life that we are thankful for?  Get them all down on paper.  Do this everyday.  We need to begin focusing our thoughts on things we are happy for and not mad about.  We have to retrain the brain how to think now.  It is like brainwashing ourselves.  Let the brainwashing process begin! 

P.S. Watch the other people around you as you build your confidence.  As you begin improving the way you feel, think and treat yourself – you will see others do it to you AND themselves!
