Are You Thinking About What You’re Thinking About

Do you realize that your belief system is ultimately what will determine whether you live a successful life or not?

Since your thoughts are what your belief system is composed of, you
should take great care in what you are thinking about because your
thoughts influence the outcome of every area of your life

Are you thinking about what you’re thinking about? The Bible says, “As
a man thinks, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7) I believe it is safe to
assume that as a man continues to think, so he will remain Along the
same line, as a man changes his thinking, so he will change himself,
and therefore, his circumstances

Obviously the key to changing your belief system is changing your thoughts

Can you think of some things you may have heard growing up that could
be influencing your beliefs today? How about “I wish I had two nickels
to rub together” or “If I had a dollar I would stay up all night and
watch it”

Needless to say this kind of programming is detrimental to your
well-being If you were told that money doesn’t grow on trees, you
will believe that money is hard to come by and you will always
struggle with lack If you were teased about being fat as a child you
may struggle with your weight today

If you were constantly told that you were fat as a child your belief
system says you’re fat, and even though dieting and excercise will
work just like it will for anyone, you will not sustain permanent
weight loss The fat child picture burns in your mind causing you to
regain any weight you may have lost

The same goes for finances If you’ve never had a large amount of
money and all of a sudden come into some, you will probably find a way
to blow it all You will sabotage it because in your mind, you do not
see yourself as a financially successful person It is a fact that the working class earn and spend and the wealthy save and invest It’s all
a matter of thinking, and thinking is a matter of beliefs

Procrastination, tardiness, lack of follow through, fear of failure
are all qualities that start as thoughts These thoughts can became
entrenched in your belief system and become obstacles to living an
abundant and prosperous life

Think rightly about the things you want to attract Get around like minded people who have the kind of life you want to live Go out to dinner with them, sit around a fire pit and talk about ideas, or play golf together If they are not physically accessible, listen to their tapes and read their books

We must take care of what we put into our minds For what goes in may also come out
