Meaning

This reads as a practical recipe for interrupting a spiral of thinking. It can be taken to mean that inner life is trainable, and that repeated attention to what is constructive can weaken a habit of complaint or fear. It lands in everyday stress, at work or at home, when one harsh thought starts coloring everything else.
