Managing Our Internal Conversations

If it’s true that who we are
Is a product
The conversations in our head,
Then it stands to reason
That managing those conversations
Might be critical
To the quality of our life.
It only takes
A single errant thought
To psyche ourselves out
Or to create an obstacle course
For us to traverse.
Our attitude is the summation
Of all our thoughts,
Both positive and negative,
That are running around
There inside our heads,
And the game of life
Can be easily won or lost
Depending on our attitude.
It was discovered long ago
That we can manage
The conversations in our head,
And in so doing,
Can dramatically alter the course
And the character of our lives.
