Thoughts Are Things

You've all heard this before..."Thoughts are things." We live in a time that more people are beginning to truly understand what this means. It doesn't mean that only your positive thoughts become your reality. It means that all thoughts that have a strong emotion attached to them become realities. Many faster than others because we put so much feeling into them. It behoves us to be more aware of what we are thinking, feeling, saying, and doing at any given point in our day. From each of those points we are creating our "tomorrows path." You choose what kind of a path you wish to walk!

I know for many the amount of stimulation that we receive just turning on the TV, reading the newspaper or even grocery shopping is staggering and sends our mind into the 'no zone.' A place where we are just randomly thinking about a million and one useless things. Luckily, many of these over stimulations don't evoke a whole lot of emotion so we are not creating them so readily, more so we are not creating anything useful, accept a general haze.

I challenge you to go through a day being aware of positive statements. The ones you 'think' about count too. For fun keep a tally of how many positive statements you have uttered and thought throughout the day. Do this for a few days if you just want to have an uplifting week. Do this for 21 days if you want it to become a habit!

"When we are able to change the very fabric of our thought, everything in our reality changes." Bo Bishop
