If you want to get better and stay better, you need to go all the way in the treatment of your problem.  Recognizing and rejecting your cognitive distortions isn't enough.  You must advance to the next level and develop a whole new way of thinking and feeling.

Although it's important to recognize and reject your twisted and distorted thoughts, it's even more important to learn how to transform your life by putting positive thoughts into your mind.  You need to have a positive operating system up and running all the time, and you need power.

After you have the insight and knowledge to deal with your problem, you need power to make the trip to a positive destination.

The most powerful force in the universe is God's love, and the most positive force in the universe is also God's love.  It has more than enough power to take you from where you are to where you want to be.  You are not alone in this battle.  God is on your side, and will give you the power to have a consistently positive mind.  God's love not only points you in the right direction; it also gives you the power to make the trip.

You decide whether negative thinking and depression will control your life.  You can make your life as positive as you want it to be.  If you want to have a mind free from depression, nobody can stop you.
