Be alert for thought patterns that are not based on reality. The following cognitive distortions will hinder your effectiveness: helplessness, passivity, negativity, defensiveness, and inflexibility.
Also, pay attention to cognitive distortions in the thoughts of others. Cognitive distortions can go viral and do a lot of damage in a group.
The best way to fight cognitive distortions is to fill your mind with God’s Word.
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. (Rom 2:2)
