3 Second Rule
When you have a thought about anything that you have previously experienced with ANY sort of emotion or physical response, it takes about 3 seconds for that thought to initiate a physical response. That thought then becomes the trigger for a remarkable physiological process.
Certainly you’ve experienced it. A sniff of the same cologne takes you right back to a past relationship. An old song takes you back to a high school dance.
What if some sort of pill that could get the same response out of the body, just 3 seconds after it is ingested, as remembering a good laugh? Or a relaxing experience? Or a wonderful memory?
What if there were a pill that got the same response out of the body, in just 3 seconds, that comes when you think about something that for you is very stressful? Or frightening? Or horrifying? Or painful? It would be poisonous.
You can’t always choose which thoughts will pop into your mind, but you can certainly choose which will get to stay longer than 3 seconds. You CAN master your thoughts, and when you do, you will be the master of your life and your destiny.
The affirmation and releasing scripts on www.mythoughtcoach.com are designed to arm you with tools to combat any negative and harmful habitual thinking, BEFORE that physical 3-second response.

The three second rule is very helpful in reverting to positivity. Especially when on the verge of succumbing to a negative thought which has the tendency to ruin the whole day. The three second rule RULES!
Since I learned about the 3 second rule through My Thought Coach, it has helped me clearly identify the emotions that different memories or experiences have on me and how they affect me. With this three second rule I am now able to catch my thinking and change my thought pattern before those overwhelming feelings hit. It helps me live in the present moment and focus on my positive future. Thank you Stin!
Oh I can't WAIT to try the 3 second rule! Thanks Stin!
