What do you think?
If you think you are beaten you are
If you think you dare not, you don’t.
If you like to win but think you can’t
It’s almost certain you wont.
If you think you’ll lose your lost.
For out of the world we find
Success begins with a fellow’s will-
It’s all in the state of mind.
If you think you are outclassed you are
You’ve got to think high-rise.
You’ve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize
Life’s battles don’t always go
to the stronger or faster man.
But sooner or later the man who wins
is the man who thinks he can.
                                   A really good poet

Steer your thoughts in the direction of the good that you want in your life.

Wallace Wattles says you will have to acquire the ability to think the way you want to think….. This is the hardest work in the world, especially when the truth is contrary to appearances.
 
This is true for health, wealth, relationships, work, etc. Your life at present is based upon your previous thinking. If you don’t like your results or want to change them , then you have to go back to the source – your thoughts. Read back through the verse again and think about how it applies to your life.
 
What thoughts do you need to change to steer you in the right direction?

One of the hardest things to do…

One of the hardest things to do… is REST. This was something I was never really good at. I couldn’t even take five minutes out for myself without justifying how “busy” I was. It used to feel really uncomfortable to put myself first. Thankfully I have learnt how do to...

Is there ever a “right time”?

Is there ever a “right time”?

People often tell themselves  that they are  too busy, too early, too late, or I’ll start "when the time is right." But what if time isn't the problem? Nature doesn't hesitate. A tree knows when to let go of its leaves and when to grow new ones. It doesn't overthink...
