Are Thoughts Just Thoughts?

Are Thoughts Just Thoughts?

Again, thoughts are just thoughts. ... Your mind is going to do what it wants to do; you don't have control over the thoughts that pop into your head. No one actually does. The important thing is not what thoughts you have, it's what you do when you have those thoughts.

Do thoughts mean anything?

The presence of unwanted intrusive thoughts does not indicate anything about your character or sanity. In fact , the content of the thoughts are actually meaningless and irrelevant, no matter how compelling. These unwanted thoughts are not fantasies or impulses or urges.

Can a thought be a fact?

Same event, different precipitating event and mood, different interpretation. The bottom line: Thoughts simply aren't facts, they are mental events that pop up in the mind and are dependent on our mood.
