What is a Thought Detective?
What exactly is a "thought detective" and what's the point of being one?
Basically it's a cute name I came up with for paying attention to what I say to myself and other people...

I pay attention to what I say to myself and other people because I've noticed that it can make my life more difficult or more easy.
It's a very helpful thing to be aware of...
Easier is nice...and more fun...
Sure, sometimes we all have had moments sometimes longer...sometimes shorter...
And we have new things to do or learn.
Me...I just don't see any reason to make it more difficult...when it can be a lot easier...
I know I've done it enough times already...
And it's not fun...
That's why I pay so much attention to what I am saying to myself and other people...
Since I've become a "thought detective", life has become much easier and a lot of fun...
And I've had plenty of new things that I've needed to learn in the last few years...

Whatever it could be...
You can make it harder for yourself, you can make it easier for yourself and you can make it more fun too...
And it has a lot to do with how you look at it...
How you talk about it...
Basically you can change a lot about how the things in your life "feel" to you...
That is...
