Since what we focus on is where our energy flows, why not focus on good. We create our own reality, every moment of every day. Since this is the case, there is great news. We no longer have to focus on negative things unless we choose to.

It has been proven that we are what we think. So I decided to shift my reality to all good thoughts and a living-in-the-moment approach. For a while there, I had been writing about injustices, continuing to expose them because I feel it always needs to be done.

There’s a time and place for everything and I believe it’s time to get back to where my heart is. I want my reality to be all about positivity and love. Albeit, I will always feel strong about exposing injustices.

Our news is constantly saturated with negative garbage to keep people feeling helpless and fearful. No wonder so many people are stressed, anxious, and just plain spent. We’re constantly fed lies and misinformation. We are systematically programmed to stay in a fight/flight situation. But remember, we can stay grounded during times of chaos.

It’s all in your mindset. You choose what you get to think so you can ignore all the chaos and false narratives being thrown at you. You have the power to think for yourself and at any moment turn away from the chaos and put your mind in a better place. By creating your own reality you can always stay grounded because it’s always just a choice of what you want to think.

Change your thoughts, change your reality. Keep your powerful, positive energy flowing all throughout the universe. Stay grounded by simply ignoring anything that makes you feel stressed. Just refocus your thoughts on better things. The second you start to have negative thoughts, just reverse them to something positive.

Reprogram your mind, reclaim your life. We get to choose what we think. Fear and chaos does not have to be our mindset.

So now that you know how powerful your mind is, put it to the test. Give fear, anxiety, and chaos a “suck-it sandwich.” Take back control of your thoughts and start living the amazing life that you’re capable of. You are the master of your own mind — don’t allow others to own it!

So as you continue to create your own reality, remember: Your mind is powerful and you can be in any reality you want. Turn your back on fear and chaos (your choice).

Live, love, laugh and think “positively.” Be good, do good.
