I am a chill chinchilla.

I am here. In this moment. Exactly where I’m meant to be.

Sometimes my mind wonders. 

That’s okay.

 –

I am a chill chinchilla full of thoughts.

I ponder, I evaluate, I try to understand. 

–

This is how we survive. We analyze so we can thrive.

–

I think too much at times.

–

Sometimes a thought becomes a worry. 

That doesn’t feel okay.

–

I am a chill chinchilla.

At my worst; I fear, I overanalyze, I start to panic inside. 

–

This is not how we survive. We overanalyze and we feel paralyzed.

–

As a chill chinchilla, I have to reframe my thoughts. I can’t allow myself to struggle with unnecessary worry.

This is where I have to ask myself…

Is this a thought, or a fear? What am I really thinking here?

If I slip up;

I ask myself…

How can I do better next time?

If I feel negative;

I ask myself…

Is there a positive side to this?

If I worry;

I ask myself…

Is worrying helpful here?

If I assume;

I ask myself…

Do I really know all the facts?

Who knew it was as simple as that.
