1. Are they meaningful?
2. Will they matter in the near future?
3. Are they of any value?
4. How will they affect me on a personal level?
The truth is, I already know the answers. They have no meaning, they are not real, or of no value. Therefore, they really don't have an effect on a personal level because it is not my story. Now I need to further ask myself these questions:
1. Do they honor God?
2. Do they honor me?
3. Can they really hurt me?
4. Why do I have these thoughts?
5. What are my fears and how to face them?
6. What are really the most important things to me?
I need help in reminding myself at times. Often, I tend to forget what is important or who is important. I also tend to forget to ask questions concerning obsessive thoughts. I have to remind myself that every time a thought comes, I don't have to react. I can be proactive. I can counteract. Reacting to these thoughts I remember are counterproductive. That is something else for me to keep in mind.
