Day 6 - How can I improve my Thoughts?

Read:
D&C 6:16
Alma 37:36-37
D&C 121:45-46

Ponder: Do I keep all idle, unclean, or negative thoughts out of my mind? What would Jesus think about? How can I improve my thoughts? Do my thoughts affect my attitude? What do I think about when I have nothing to think about?

Myself
I have to live with myself, and so,
I want to be fit for myself to know;
I want to be able as days go by,
Always to look myself straight in the eye;
I don't want to stand with the setting sun
And hate myself for the things I've done.
I don't want to keep on a closet shelf
A lot of secrets about myself,
And fool myself as I come and go
Into thinking that nobody else will know
The kind of man I really am;
I don't want to dress myself up in sham.
I want to deserve all men's respect;
But here in this struggle for fame and pelf,
I want to be able to like myself.
I don't want to think as I come and go
That I'm for bluster and bluff and empty show.
I never can hide myself from me,
I see what others may never see,
I know what others may never know,
I never can fool myself -- and so,
Whatever happens, I want to be
Self-respecting and conscience free
