The Mind

Napoleon Hill wrote, “what the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.” Theres much power in that statement. Did you know you can trick your mind? It’s true.

Our minds don’t know the difference between reality and fantasy. Visualizing your future self, with emotional conviction, will manifest into reality. The key to success comes from the believing.”

It’s important to remember that this can and will work against you, too. If you focus on failure, doom and gloom, and you emotionalize it, those things will manifest. While you are guarding your heart, guard your thoughts, too.

I encourage you to spend a few minutes visualizing your future self. See yourself succeeding. Pursue your wildest dreams with everything you have in you.

And remember to include God in your visuals. He wants to share in your success…

Halfway There

We are now in the second half of 2024. Before you know it we will be celebrating Christmas! And as crazy as it sounds, some retailers already have Christmas decorations up. Yes, retailers are hurting that bad in this economy.

Take a moment to review the past six months. Think about the high moments, your victories. Keep those in the forefront of your mind every day while adding new successes as you go along.

Did you make any resolutions for 2024 that went by the wayside? It’s not too late to start again. Don’t beat yourself up, just begin again. And again. And keep trying.

You can accomplish anything you set your mind to. Make the next half of the year your best half…

Take Aim

What are your goals, dreams and desires? Have you written them down?

We are all wired differently. Some people want a simple life without complications. Others don’t mind the challenges a bigger life brings with it. Aiming for the outer limits of the universe is a good thing unless you’re just chasing wealth.

Personally, I ask God to make me famous. As egotistical as this sounds, my reasons are pure. Fame brings a bigger platform than anonymity. I want to use my fame to let the forgotten people, the overlooked and the marginalized know they are important. I want them to feel seen and heard.

I encourage you to take aim at whatever turns you on. Do it for the right reasons. Ask God to open doors for you that were previously closed. If your heart is in the right place, He will.

When you get your heart right, worthwhile actions follow…

Goal Tending

Do you set goals? Some people make New Years resolutions which are, in essence, goals. Yet they aren’t the same.

Resolutions are things you want to resolve within yourself. Perhaps it’s a behavior you wish to change.

Goals are achievement-oriented. Goals are definable, measurable, and they should stretch you to reach them. This is one of the ways we grow.

Set goals for yourself, and check your progress regularly. Then look back after a period of time and see how far you’ve progressed.

Checking In…

We are almost three months into 2021. If you set resolutions or goals for 2021, how’s it going? I encourage you, do not give up. If you are off-track, do a reset and begin again. And again. And again. It’s hard to beat someone who refuses to give up…
