The Great Gautama Buddha once recognized the foundation on which our well being and success as Human Beings rest and simplified the complex nature of our ups and downs in life by saying “We are what we think”. A stretch of this will mean, we become what we want to become in our minds.
He might have plagiarised this saying from ancient teachings and scriptures but that should not be of any relevance to this post. What we need to know is not the source of this simple principle of fetching success but the power behind our own minds.
It might sound ludicrous to be told that, most of our failures in life are as a result of our own thinking. Yes, you’re the devil bewitching you own success and progress in life.
No matter how absurd this may sound to your supreme intellect, it is an undisputed fact that, when you fail in your mind before you even set off a journey, you will surely fail on your way. If you begin by thinking you cannot jump a hurdle, do not bother jumping because you will surely not be able to jump it.
If “It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog” that matters, then surely it is not the size of our minds we channel towards success that matters but the success in our minds.
Our success and zeal to continue chasing our desire in life is in tuned with our confidence and perseverance level. Confidence and perseverance dwells in our mind, making the mind the most effective and instrumental source of success in life.
Do not give way to negativity in your mind as it will certainly manifest in your every day life. Negative thoughts breed negative results. This is a disease whose cure is only at its source, the mind.
The mind carries a moving power that performs a dual function of push and pull depending on the direction we place it. Your success will be pushed far away from all your tedious efforts when you fail in your mind. Any element of doubt in your mind gives way to uncertainties in your success.
A positive mindset is followed by a strong force of pull that drags success into our lives. The failure and success in our everyday life is largely controlled and determined by the power our minds discharge towards our goal.
Why are you masking your own success with failure (negative thoughts)? Why are you bewitching the greatness that stands not far from you with doubts?
My deepest fear in life is that, our minds are powerful beyond measure and yet we do not know. Engrave success and good deeds in your everyday thinking and it will manifest in your everyday life. The evil we think breeds the misfortunes we encounter. Acknowledge the power and might of the mind and direct it positively towards your goal.
