Really.
You can't.
Your thoughts will appear, and there's nothing you can do to reverse that.
What you can do is not give it attention.
Attention is how the thought grows.
The modern life is perfect example of this, let's say you just thought of doomscolling, then you ( open tiktok for important reasons )
And that's how your attention is hijacked.
It's all about steering where your attention goes.
Remember you're not your thoughts.
You're the observer of those thoughts.
You might think where these thoughts come from.
Well most of it is just a compilation of your past which i call experiences, and based on what happened then, you have certain beliefs that either give you energy to go through hard times,
or u get limited by them.
If that's the case, you don't give attention and do the important shit anyways.
And a new experience is born.
