Self caring with Music

“Be careful how you think;your life is shaped by your thoughts”

                                                       Proverbs 4:23

Our thoughts have a major role in our daily lives. Hence, starting our day with positive thoughts will have amazing effects on how we perceive the rest of the day; whether we think of the day as overwhelming or as a chance for new beginnings. One of the most effective ways to influence our thoughts is through music. Therefore, starting the day with positive music, while doing chores, eating, while in the bathroom, going to work etc, will boost positive thoughts, thus a positive attitude.

And who doesn’t love music? It is the perfect way to start the day. Here is a list of 21 great gospel songs to start the day with a positive energy:

Reckless Love – I Am They

No longer Slaves – I am they

Into the sea – Tasha Layton

Faithful God – I am They

Speak the name – Koryn Hawthorne

Broken Things – Matthew West

Take Heart – Matthew West

Gracefully Broken – Tasha Cobbs

Rebel Heart – Lauren Daigle

You say – Lauren Daigle

Look up Child – Lauren Daigle

IF God – Casey J

Made a way – Travis Greene

What a beautiful name – Hillsong Worship

Nobody – Casting Crown, Matthew West

Scars – I Am They

Come Alive – Lauren Daigle

Rolling Stones – Lauren Daigle

Keep me in the moment – Jeremy Camp

War cry – Queen Naija

While I’m waiting – Travis Greene (feat. Chandler Moore)

Gospel music is great way to start the day, it reminds us that God is there with us and no matter how overwhelmed we may feel, listening to the right music can have a significant change on our mood and how we decide to approach the day and its challenges. There are many days when I wake up in a  bad mood, however, just by listening to some of these songs I am reminded that God is with me and I’ll be alright.

“Music touches us emotionally, where words alone can’t”

If you can relate, and want to know how to regain interest in doing asks, below are four steps you should consider, which I have also tried and they proved to be very effective. 1. Evaluate the cause for your lack of motivation Finding out why you are demotivated could be useful in encouraging you to address the problem and change your mindset. Therefore, here are reasons for lack of motivation: Fear It could be that you possess no interest to complete your duties because you are afraid to. Say for example, it’s an assignment that you’ve been putting off because you’re afraid that it will be too challenging and you won’t know what to do. Or, maybe it’s something much more important and you’re afraid if you do it you’ll fail
