Thoughts are powerful things.
Thoughts are powerful things.
Your thoughts have an enormous influence on your life. The quality of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts, so think well! You tend to become what you think.
An optimistic, positive mental attitude is essential for good living.
“A man is what he thinks about all day long.” Ralph Waldo Emerson “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” Proverbs 23:7
What you think about determines what you end up with. Positive, faith inspired thoughts bring good things. Negative, fearful thoughts tend to bring nothing but garbage.
Worry, fear and negativity don’t help. They drain your energy and drag you down.
“Negative thoughts are like lead balloons tied to your heart. They will take you down -complaining all the way. Faith thoughts, on the other hand, are like helium balloons. When you turn your worries into prayers, and send them up - your heart can soar again.” Mark O Wilson
Better living begins with better thinking.
“It is the mind that makes good or ill, wretched or happy, rich or poor.” Edmund Spencer

“Every thought is a seed. If you plant crab apples, don’t count on harvesting Golden Delicious.” Bill Meyer
“Change your thoughts, and you change your world.” Norman Vincent Peale
“When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing that seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.” A.A Milne
