Exercising our will is required to determine which thoughts we entertain, and which thoughts we dismiss. If the thought does not serve you - you have the ability to dismiss it. You can create different strategies that enable you to retrain your mind to focus and attract thoughts that enable you, and empower you, while doing away with the thoughts that torment you and cripple you.
