The trouble with most people is that they think with their hopes or fears or wishes rather than with their minds.
I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right.
The happiest people in this world are those who have the most interesting thoughts.
Are we in love with God or just His stuff?
When you begin to meditate on a regular basis, you will start to notice that thoughts and feelings that may have been building up inside of you are gently released and you reach the quiet place that was always there, waiting for you- the place of pure awareness. It is there that you will experience peace, healing, and true rejuvenation.
Take a walk outside - it will serve you far more than pacing around in your mind.
Rich people believe "You can have your cake and eat it too." Middle-class people believe "Cake is too rich, so I'll only have a little piece." Poor people don't believe they deserve cake, so they order a doughnut, focus on the hole, and wonder why they have "nothing."
Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not.
If we don't fight hard enough for the things we stand for, at some point we have to recognize that we don't really stand for them.
In our course we teach that "no thought lives in your head rent-free." Each thought you have will either be an investment or a cost. It will either move you toward happiness and success or away from it. It will either empower you or disempower you. That's why it is imperative you choose your thoughts and beliefs wisely.
Let the views of others educate and inform you, but let your decisions be a product of your own conclusions.
Strategy requires thought, tactics require observation
Make a decision that from now on, your thoughts do not run you, you run your thoughts. From now on, your mind is not the captain of your ship, you are the captain of the ship, and your mind works for you.
We are not taught to be thinkers, but reflectors of our culture. Let's teach our children to be thinkers.
As a child I assumed that when I reached adulthood, I would have grown-up thoughts.
I always thought the Yankees had something to do with it.
Thoughtfulness is like a glue that hold a married couple together. Be creative and consistent in finding thoughtful ways to show your spouse that you love them and they are always on your mind.
Never under estimate the Power of the Mind. Persist in creating new thoughts to prevent falling back into negative patterns. It is an ongoing struggle and you have to commit to winning if you are to succeed.
After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
There is plenty of time to argue with new ideas later. They key is to take careful notes first and debate second.
Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality.
I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.
It doesn't take time to think right. It only takes the willingness to do so.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought; what we think we become.
