I always believed that a busy mind was a bad thing. And for a large part of my life, it was. Looking back, I don’t ever recall a time when I wasn’t caught up in my thoughts. There was always a “narrator” in my head. A constant commentary.

Having the right message can get us through tough times, stick with us when we’re facing adversity, and help us tackle challenging situations.
