The 10 Day Mental Diet Challenge – Day 7
Day 7 update of the mental diet challenge. All in all, a pretty good day. As I mentioned in the previous day’s update, I resolved to be more mindful of my states, to see if there was something I was missing. And I can honestly say that I didn’t see anything to be concerned about. …
The 10 Day Mental Diet Challenge – Day 6
I didn’t post yesterday about how day 6 went for me (of the mental diet challenge, of course). I’ve got a very good explanation for that! You see, Monday I came down with a cold. And Tuesday, it worsened to a fever and aches. So I decided the best thing for me would be to …
The 10 Day Mental Diet Challenge – Day 5
Day 5 of the mental diet challenge went well today, I’m pleased to say! I’m still a bit skeptical though, it seems almost too easy. I have to be missing something throughout the day. On a side note, I’m coming down with a cold (thanks to my lovely daughter). And I found out something interesting; …

This has suddenly become very easy, and it’s making me a little suspicious. Now that I’ve said that, I’ve likely jinxed …
The 10 Day Mental Diet Challenge – Day 3
Day three of the 10 day mental diet challenge is in the books. Today I’ve noticed several opportunities to engage in negative thoughts, and was (thankfully) mindful enough to notice what was happening, and make a conscious shift to a new state. Now, the method I’m using to shift may not be the best (I’ll …
The 10 Day Mental Diet Challenge – Day 2
So I’ve completed day 2 of the 10 day mental diet challenge. Yes, that’s right. Completed. I don’t even recall a time where it was close today. No prolonged negative mindsets. Actually, none at all.
Today, you’ve got a decision to make.
