Motivation Monday.
Today, my post is inspired a book I’ve read countless times but it’s fresh every time! “As a man thinketh” James Allen.
Let’s journey together through some priceless insights I got from the book.
You are made or unmade yourself.
As man forms his thoughts, he forms alongside weapons which either destroys him or builds him.
As lord of your thoughts, you hold the key to every situation, and contains within yourself the keys to make yourself as you will.
This is so much so, that your circumstances are so intimately connected with every vital thought within you.
The soul of man attracts that which it secretly fears, loves or hates.
Your circumstances are never coincidental; they just reveal you to yourself (build up of your thoughts).
You do not attract that which you wish and want, but that which you are.
Fighting against circumstances is revolting against an effect only. When all the while, you’re nourishing the cause in your heart.
A successful man is one who has mastered the art of controlling his thoughts. He configures it in such a way that it is highly receptive to only thoughts that supports his cause.
The height of responsibility is in the control of your thoughts.
A man is only a man when he adapts his mind to regulate himself building strong and noble thoughts.
We imagine that thoughts can be kept secret, but it cannot.
This is why you brood on a thing so much; it gains access to penetrate your dreams and influence your judgement.
It rapidly crystallizes into habit, and habit solidifies into circumstance.
Thought is the fountain of action, life and manifestation; make the fountain pure, and all will be pure.
Conceive a legitimate purpose in your heart and set out to accomplish it. Make this purpose the centralizing point of your thoughts.
Focus on purpose is the royal road to self control and true concentration of thoughts.
Conquer fear and doubt, and you’ve conquered failure.
Thoughts allied fearlessly to purpose become creative force.
Cherish your vision. Dream lofty dreams; and as you dream, so shall you become.
A man becomes calm in the measure that he understands himself as a thought evolved being.
The calm man, having learned how to govern himself knows how to adapt himself to others.
One important step in fulfilling Purpose is to Unlearn Negative Thoughts…
And infuse yourself in only thoughts that align with your greatest goals.
Deliberately choose your thoughts; radically think them through and you’re well on your way!
Philippians 4:8 KJV
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
