Thought Interrupt

Thought Interrupt is a Thought Transformation Initiative, comprising a growing library of Hope-Filled, Inspirational and Encouraging resources which can help change limiting or negative thought patterns into positive, powerful, life enhancing mindsets.

Scientifically, this process of changing the way we think is called ‘Neuroplasticity’, and it refers to the brain’s ability to adapt and create new neural connections, allowing us to modify long standing thought patterns and develop more positive or constructive cognitive habits over time.

In short, not only can we change the way we think, but also our resulting emotional feelings along with our behavioural responses. Meaning we get to feel better and enjoy the benefits of taking positive action.

We all have inherent ways of thinking which are influenced by many factors such as life experience, family upbringing, friendships, schooling & spiritual leaning to name but a few. While much of our thinking can be very constructive, there will be times in our lives when our thoughts are less positive, fuelling negative feelings like discouragement, anxiety and frustration. The effects of which are wide ranging, and can negatively impact our quality of life, productivity, relationships and even our health.

Thought Interrupt provides the tools to help transform the way we think. By interrupting negative or limiting thought patterns with hope-filled ideas and concepts, we can seed and grow healthy mindsets that improve our emotional wellbeing, and in turn our ability to take positive action, ultimately enabling us to enjoy a successful and flourishing life.

Every action starts first with a thought, and a healthy, flourishing thought life releases us to live fulfilling, hope filled lives of purpose!

“Sow a thought and you reap an action; sow an act and you reap a habit; sow a habit and you reap a character; sow a character and you reap a destiny.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Hi, I’m James, the visionary behind Thought Interrupt.

With over 15 years’ experience advising clients in the Health and Wellbeing space, I’m very familiar with the importance of Healthy Mindsets, and have marvelled at some people’s ability to thrive in the face of very challenging circumstances. I have also experienced firsthand the frustrations and difficulties fuelled by negative thought patterns and limiting beliefs.

Previously, I began my professional career with Jaguar Landrover, working in a technically specialised environment in their Advanced Engineering Department. I stepped off to start up my own business in a different industry, and was confronted with the need to develop a radically new skillset. Initially I struggled to maintain a positive perspective in the face of the new challenges which adversely affected my motivation and consequently my performance. I quickly learnt that I could ‘hack’ my emotions short term by interrupting the negative or discouraging thought patterns with hope-filled, inspiring and encouraging ideas.

I then found that by regularly nourishing my mind with life-giving ideas, I could change the way I perceived challenges and difficult situations and consequently became significantly more hopeful about the future. This had a profound impact on my emotional state, my relationships, my performance and my business.

A timeless truth affirms that, ‘As a man thinks in his heart, so is he’, meaning that our life, comprising our emotions, words, actions and relationships all stem from our thinking. The wonderful fact is that we can change our thinking, and build new powerful mindsets, serving us to flourish in life with hope and excitement for the future.

Here’s to the adventure ahead!
