You Are Not Your Thoughts

from The Positive Habits Podcast · host Kat Thorne

Kat shares a powerful reminder in this solo episode that you are not your thoughts. In every talk she delivers, she asks the same question and urges you to do the same “What is one of the first thoughts that you have when you open your eyes?” Kat shares why this question is so important, and you need to start taking note of these thoughts and how they impact your day. KEY TAKEAWAYS The thoughts you have first thing in the morning are shaping your day. Thoughts create actions, behaviours and your feelings. Negative thoughts have an evolutionary advantage to protect you, but in day to day life, they are sabotaging your growth and potential. When we believe every thought we have, including the negative ones, that’s when we impact our self-esteem and progress. You can’t stop your thoughts, but you can notice them without becoming them. BEST MOMENTS “Those thoughts are shaping your entire day” “The job of this voice is to protect you and keep you safe, but often that voice can end up sabotaging you” “I have got to a point now where I recognise those thoughts and I don’t let them control me or my actions” ABOUT THE HOST Kat started her career as a teacher, before moving into Tech where she worked in different executive roles within teaching and consulting working across the globe, both in the public and private sector. Despite appearing 'successful' on the outside, she paid a heavy ‘life’ price. In 2016, her whole world collapsed. The reason? The compound effect of years of unhealthy and toxic habits that destroyed her health, relationship and career. She suffered a severe breakdown and lost everything. In the middle of this she got headhunted for her first CEO role. She rebuilt herself by changing just one small habit, and built a series of positive habits which has transformed her professional and personal performance, resulting in becoming the healthiest and happiest version of herself.  She is a positive habits international keynote speaker and teacher, giving talks and delivering high impact programmes to organisations across the globe.  LinkedIn Instagram
