What thoughts are you preoccupied by? Are they pleasing preoccupations? Or are the preoccupations in your head causing or creating unusual behavior in your life?
Whatever one is preoccupied by his or heart will soon follow. Then the only thing left is action. Be careful to watch your thoughts that they do not lead your heart to action which can lead to death (Rom2:28).
The Message in Philippians 4:8,9 says it best:
"Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse."
