You Are What You Think


Your mind is a very powerful thing, and most of us take it for granted. We believe we aren't in control of what we think because our thoughts seem to fly in and out all day long. But you are in control of your thoughts, and you become what you think about. And that little kernel of truth is the secret power of the mind. 
It's really not a secret after all. The power is available to every single person, including you. And it's free.
"The secret" is that you are what you think. You become what you think about. You can create the life you want, simply by thinking the right thoughts.
In 1956, Earl Nightingale wrote "The Strangest Secret" in an attempt to teach people the power of the mind, the power of thought. He said, "you become what you think about all day long."
Nightingale's inspiration came from Napoleon Hill's book, "Think and Grow Rich," published in 1937.
For 75 years (and likely long before that), this simple "secret" has been taught to adults around the world.
At the very least, the knowledge has been available to us.
So why is it a secret?
We are creatures of habit. We tend to follow the picture in our minds created by our parents, our neighborhoods, our towns and the part of the world from which we come. For good or for bad.
But we don't have to. We each have a mind of our own, capable of imagining life the way we want it. We can say yes or no to the million choices we each encounter every single day. Sometimes it's good to say no, of course, or we wouldn't get anything at all done. But the most successful peoplesay yes to life overall. They are open to possibilities. They believe they have the power to make changes in their lives. They aren't afraid to try new things, or to fail. In fact, many of the most successful companies reward people who have the courage to try new things, even if they fail, because the things we call failures often turn into extremely successful things. Did you know Post-It Notes were a mistake in the beginning?
Start imagining your life the way you want it. Create a picture in your mind and think about that picture steadfastly all day long. Believe in it.
You don't have to tell anybody. Have your own quiet confidence that you can make the picture in your mind come true.
You will start making different choices in line with your picture. You will take small steps in the right direction.
You'll also encounter obstacles. Don't let these obstacles stop you. If you hold your picture of the life you want steadfast in your mind, you will eventually create that life.
What have you got to lose? Close your eyes and start now.
You will become what you think about.

What I've done in life no longer matters, what matters is that I'm content within my own skin and with the world that surrounds me. I've come to realize a few things, one of which is that you can't turn a donkey into a racehorse. I began blogging 20 years ago and I was going to change the world, they say wisdom isn't wasted on the youth. The harsh reality of it all is that everyone is right where they're supposed to be. We are all locked into prisons of our own making because of our imagination or lack thereof and our own thinking has placed us there. You may as well get comfy.
