Heteronym

The word of the day is heteronym.

I heard a word that is an interesting heteronym.

Re-creation or Recreation.

I teach people on a daily basis to re-create their thoughts.

There has to be a re-creation of negative thoughts in their mind when they re-create and it has to be fun, which is short for recreation.

I’m so proud of you for re-creating things in your mind, but is it a chore?

A forced effort to do so?

If so, try to make it a game.

Your brain will respond easier to something that’s fun.

Set yourself a trigger that reminds you to be mindful of the thought habit / belief you want to change, sort of like a power up you would have in a game.

Then give yourself a reward after catching yourself in the bad habit and pivoting away from the negative thought, such as five minutes of doing something you enjoy… Check out random cat videos, I hear they are a hit.
