    1. 1) The line game.  Every time I’m in a line I use that as a trigger to just notice what kinds of thoughts I’m having in that moment.  Are they supportive and advancing me forward or are they negative? We spend a great deal of time in lines at the grocery store, in traffic, at coffee shops, etc so this works as a great and consistent trigger to bring awareness to our thoughts.2)  Acknowledging thoughts.  When I find myself thinking a negative thought, I say to myself,  “Oh, there’s a negative thought”. The goal is to have no judgement about it.  Remember, it’s normal. The aim is just to observe that you’re having a thought and then move on from it.  It’s a bit funny when you first start but approaching negative thoughts from a playful place makes them less scary.  Instead of thinking “Oh my god, I’m so negative - I suck at this” just swap that out with “Oh hey there negative thought, I see you.  Kthanksbye”

      These shouldn't be here - it's a double from last lesson :)
