You're The One In Charge

 You’re The One In Charge

“Your mind is your greatest friend if you control it — but your mind is your greatest enemy if it controls you.”

The mind ‘holds’ incredible power.

“It” dreams, thinks and can craft out realities.

What the mind “thinks” the body does.

What we think about controls our emotions.

Our minds can be our freedom or our prison.

The emphasis is on us.

What do we ‘put’ into our minds?

What do we allow ourselves to think about?

Being aware of what and who we think about is a powerful way of controlling our minds.

And we need to Control our minds and never let our minds control us.

Remember that Controlling our minds is a day-to-day routine which will also make our minds stronger.

See What You Are Capable Of

“Trust yourself! You can do more than you think.”

How many times have we said; “I didn’t know I could do that!” ?

The truth is that we always ‘underestimate’ ourselves and never see ourselves as others do.

We need to remember what challenges we have come through and how much stronger we have become.

Every experience we have gone through equips us and gives us the tools of knowledge and resilience to help us on our journey in life.

Every step we take, whether large or small, is a testament to our strength and determination to be happy in our lives.

When we begin to understand that every experience is an open door to a new opportunity, we begin to “see” what we are capable of.

Keep Thinking About A Happy Tomorrow

 Keep Thinking About A Happy Tomorrow

“Believe your future can be better than your present, and you have the power to make it so.”

Every belief and conviction we have starts in our minds.

What we think about, we’ll believe and have and will do.

Then, we need to ‘nurture’ the belief within ourselves that our future will be a good and happy future.

This is within our ‘power’ to do.

Every day, we can do something towards our ‘good’ future, no matter how small the steps may be.

We need to focus our ‘vision’ or our minds on this happy tomorrow.

It is true that we will and do face challenges but with a determined mind, we will overcome them and be stronger for it.

Remember, everything we do comes from the mind so keep thinking about that happy future.

You Do Not Need To Fight

 You Do Not Need To Fight

“The battle isn’t between you and the world, the battle is between you and your mind.”

This is so true!

Many times, the problems that surround us are made ‘bigger’ by the thoughts in our own minds.

What we think about and how we think about things affects how we ‘see’ them.

And very often, when we control our thinking, we control what is going on around us.

Progress is very often stronger when it is slower, one step at a time.

This will give you strength and courage to ‘deal’ with the world.

Cultivate a mindset of resilience and positivity and then you will find that you are in control of your world and do not need to ‘fight’ with anyone.

Open That Door To The Future

 Open That Door To The Future

“If you can’t do anything about it then let it go. Don’t be a prisoner to things you can’t change.”

Some things in our lives are beyond our control and we need to accept this.

Letting go of things that we cannot control will free our minds to find new opportunities and to find new paths.

This will also stop us from worrying and wasting our thoughts on things we can do nothing about.

Letting go does not mean giving up but it means that you refuse to be ‘chained’ to these circumstances.

In this way, we can focus our minds on our dreams and on positive thoughts which can only strengthen our hold on life.

Letting go of the past will open that new door to the future.

Be Completely Focused

Be Completely Focused

“Whatever consumes your mind, controls your life.”

Whatever we focus our minds on will eventually ‘be’ our lives.

When we meditate on happy and optimistic thoughts, we will be cheerful and full of joy, and our smiles and very manner will reflect this when we are with other people or even alone by ourselves.

Allowing our minds to nurture these kinds of positive thoughts will ‘influence’ our lives for the better.

Thinking about challenges as opportunities will give us the confidence and the courage to ‘deal’ with them.

So make a conscious effort to focus on what you truly value and your mind and your whole way of life will follow.

"Think" Good Thoughts

 “Think” Good Thoughts

“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts. So think happy and positive.”

We know this well.

Our minds control every aspect of us, from our emotions to our physical bodies to the way we live our very lives.

We need to be aware of what and who we think about.

Sometimes we may have to make a conscious effort to “think the right thing”.

But when we do this, we invite happiness, joy and positivity into our lives.

These ‘qualities’ will help us to face and ‘fight’ the challenges which will come our way.

A happy mind ‘is’ a healthy body.

Afterall, our mind is ours alone and it is our right and responsibility to “think” good thoughts.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
