We need to get rid of this notion that we have no control over our lives or who we become.
Instead, we need to decide that we are going to make the necessary changes to start acting like the person who we believe that we can become. I just really believe that something happens when you make a choice…when you decide that you are going to act like the person who you believe that you can be. And it all starts with your thoughts.
When I think of this subject, I always think about the best-selling book, The Alchemist, and the famous quote by its author, Paulo Coelho:
“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
There may definitely be some opposition at first to your positive thinking, but it won’t last forever. Why? Because you are the one who is in control of your thoughts. You are the one who can change your thoughts towards the reality that you wish to see and create. If anything, the opposition only makes you stronger and shapes you into the person who you ultimately want to become. I don’t know what it is, but I believe there is a real power that can come from making a choice…from deciding that you are going to do what it is that you put my mind to do.
Some people call it, the Law of Attraction. Some people call it positive thinking. I don’t know if that is it exactly. But I do believe that we each have the power to become the person who we believe or dream for ourselves to be. I believe that’s part of the reason why we are each given different dreams because we each have something different to fulfill.
But to start that journey, we have to make changes –most of those consist of our thoughts. I dare you to start changing your thinking. I dare you to believe that anything is possible. And I dare you to believe that you can use your thoughts and your life to change the world around you.
Just try.
