The Power of Your Thoughts
Copyright 2006 Daniel N Brown
How often have you gotten started on something new with great
positive energy and everything went well in the beginning?
Whether it was a new job, a new relationship, moving to a new
area, a new project, anything. You started off with zeal and
passion. But after a while you grew tired. Your positive energy
began to turn negative and your thoughts began to work against
you. Before you knew it you started creating things you didn't
want.
It all started when you lost your focus on what you wanted.
Instead of creating what you wanted you started saying things
like, I hate my job, my wife/husband is difficult, I don't like
it here anymore, and the pattern continued. Then things got
progressively worse and you wonder what went wrong.
This is what went wrong; You lost control over your thoughts and
stopped creating the things you wanted in your life.
Thoughts are powerful forces of energy and can only come from
your own mind. Since you are the only one in charge of your
mind, you create the thoughts that create the circumstances in
your life. Since your thoughts create reality, you create your
reality.
Just as the conscience mind is the source of thought, so the
subconscience mind is the source of power. You give instructions
to your subconscious mind through your thoughts. It doesn't know
good from bad or right from wrong. It only follows your
instructions, which are your thoughts. It will create anything
you tell it.
Pay attention to your thoughts. Analyze them and listen to what
you are thinking. Then decide if these are good thoughts, bad
thoughts or needless thoughts. Decide if these thoughts work for
you or against you.
Take control of your thoughts and make the most of your life.
Remember, the Bible says, "Whatsoever things are true, honest,
just, pure, lovely, of good report, if there be any virtue, or
any praise, think on these things" (Phil 4:8).
