I know that you want to have everything you need to have a full and happy life. Who doesn’t? Who doesn’t want to be great, highly effective, and respected? Who doesn’t want the time and energy to show up authentically for our loved ones when they need us, and also the time to just recharge our own batteries, too?
We want a lot. The best we can have, right? However, we often say one thing and believe the opposite, thereby inadvertently working against ourselves.
I’ve been studying the power of thought since I was 18 years old. Throughout my university days, my bookshelf was split between the required books on one side and my personal ones on the other. I’ve consumed just about everything I could get my hands on to more effectively understand, practice and, eventually, teach the underlying mechanics of the power of thought. However, I have fallen short of some of my goals too. But I remind myself, as I’m reminding you – negative thoughts, speech, and beliefs, if left unchecked, can negate our dreams, goals, and desires.
Understanding even the basic relationships between your conscious and subconscious mind; your heart; and your entire body systems will make the difference in whether you harness the power of thought to reach the mountain peaks you’re seeking or whether self-perpetuating negativity leads you down other paths.
Study yourself. It’s important to understand how you work. And that takes us back to what we want. We want to be empowered leaders, partners and parents.
As Gandhi said: “Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, your actions become your habits, your habits become your values, your values become your destiny.”
Be the reflection you want to see in your life!
