There are no neutral thoughts according to A Course in Miracles. Our thoughts are either positive or negative. There's nothing in-between. By being positive, we feel at peace with the world. Negative thoughts are at the root of our suffering.
It's a choice!
Though I try to keep it positive, old habits die hard. I have to stay on my toes or ego will jump back in at every opportunity. It's really important to be positive towards yourself when you fall back into old patterns of negative thinking. It's going to happen over and over. After all, nobody is perfect! We can just give it our best!
