Your brain is a powerful organ working twenty-four hours a day to keep you alive and well. You can use these affirmations to make your brain work more efficiently for you.
A Powerful Organ
Your brain is always rewiring itself, so you’ll never lose the ability to learn and change.
Those brain cells are pretty incredible, too. They shoot messages around so efficiently. Brain signals can reach speeds of 267mph (430 km/h)! And if you ever got the urge (and the equipment) to measure your brain action while you’re sleeping, you’d find that it’s just as active at night as it is during the day.
That’s because it’s busy pumping your heart, digesting your food, maintaining your blood pressure, and much more – all so you can wake up alive and kicking.
Consider this though: in a single day, 70,000 thoughts can pass through your brain. Some of these may be the same thoughts looping around over and over. Others will be new.
70,000. Imagine if all, or even a large proportion of, those thoughts were negative. Imagine if you had the same negative thought going around and around in a loop, thousands of times a day.

If for most of your adult life, you’ve thought about how much you hate cooking dinner, you’ll develop a really strong belief that cooking dinner is not a fun activity.
