DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK WHAT YOU THINK YOU THINK? By Princess Mercy, Winner, Face Of Christmas 2013.
An individual's thought(s) is no doubt a very crucial part of his/her life as it determines wh you truly are. Our thought(s) is the script our life is acting on and as such, our actions cannot go contrary. It is our thought(s) that give our live direction and set us on the path of success or failure.
Your thought(s) determine your attitude and your attitude determines your stability in life. Abraham Lincoln once said; "Many folks are about happy as they want to be" was he implying that when it comes to our happiness we actually have a choice? Apparently, similarly, I must say that many folks are about successful as they want to be. This is because we have a choice in determining whether or not we will be successful.
For you to change your world, for you to be successful, you must change your thoughts and begin to think success. One great challenge humanity faces is the fact that only a few persons think what they think they think. Your words are also a product of what you think. Successful people are not born, they are made. Successful people think success. Remember, what ever is too big for you to imagine, is too big for you to achieve and what does not cross your mind can not cross your way because those who think success see opportunity in every challenge; while those who don't think success see challenges in every opportunity. Change your thoughts today and change your world!
I asked God to take away my pride. And God said "No". He said it was not for him to take away, but for me to give it up. I asked God to make my handicapped child whole. And God said "No". He said her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary. I asked God to grant me patience. And God said "No". He said patience is a by product of tribulations. It isn't granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness. And God said "No". He said he gives me blessings, happiness is up to me. I asked God to spare me pain. And God said "No". He said suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me. I asked God to make my spirit grow. And God said "No". He said I must grow on my own. But he will prune me to make me fruitful.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. And God said "No".He said I will give you life, that you may enjoy all things. I ask God to help me LOVE others, as much as he loves me. And God said, Ah, finally you have the idea.
