This whole “thoughts become things” principle is at work at all times. It’s not activated only when you’re trying to decide what to eat, what to cook, or how to run from the Hokey Pokey.
Your dominant thoughts color, influence and profoundly determine everything you feel, say and do. The way you think about everything directly feeds who you are and how you show up in the world.
In a very real way, you are what you think!
In fact, many of your fellow homo sapiens have echoed this same sentiment over the centuries. Such as:
“All that you accomplish or fail to accomplish with your life is the direct result of your thoughts.” –James Allen
“We become what we think about.” –Earl Nightingale
“You can build radiant health, success and happiness by the thoughts you think in the hidden studio of your mind.” –Joseph Murphy, Ph.D
“There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” –William Shakespeare, from Hamlet
“A simple man believes anything, but a prudent man gives thought to his steps.” –Proverbs 14:15
“If at first you don’t succeed, give up!” –Homer Simpson
Okay, that last quote may have seemed out of place (which is why it made you smile). But I placed it there for a reason.
Why? Because I’m extremely clever, of course ... AND because that last quote represents one way to think about life.
And this is a vitally important thing to understand ...
