The only way to consciously deactivate a thought is to activate another. In other words, the only way to deliberately withdraw your attention from one thought is to give your attention to another.
― Esther Hicks
I think it’s so easy to get stuck on a path that we don’t even realize we’re on. To get fixated on an idea that doesn’t feel like we have the ability to change. Love this quote, how it gives a tool for change. Always looking for different ways to look at things, this one struck a chord.
