Positive Quotes & Stories III

“Both actions and inactions, have consequences!”

“Whatever you sow,…so shall you reap!”

MIND FITNESS

Let’s talk about exercising your brain. The first part of this story we’ll focus on building a better brain. In order to build self-confidence you must feed your brain. When you feed your brain the proper foods, your self- confidence will grow. In the same way you need to feed your body the proper foods to keep it strong and healthy …you must feed your head to keep it focused on your goals. A question that you should ask yourself and then answer as honestly as possible is: “What would you be doing with your life if you knew you couldn’t fail?” Once you answer this question, you may be on your way toward your life mission!

So,…how can you “feed your mind” and build a positive attitude day by day, month by month and ultimately for as long as you choose to? Well, the easiest and most effective (from my experience) would begin with:

#1 Read as many books, and magazines that are positive inspirational and motivational as you possibly can.

#2 Listen to audio tapes in the car, home, office, while working out, walking or simply relaxing.

#3 Study the lives of the people who have a positive message to share with all of us, and especially in the given field you’ve chosen to be great at.

We’ve all heard that saying.. “you are what you eat”.. well, the same applies to the mind…. “you are what you continually think about” ..(think about that for a moment or two). Everything you allow into your mind, positively or negatively, will affect your actions. You are “what you think” you are! People, can have the strongest affect on our lives. I believe that you become, the people, you hang out with. The people you associate with and share ideas with have a major influence on how you choose to act upon or not act upon your dreams. Haven’t you ever been around a positively charged person who electrifies you and everyone around you? They say… “confidence is contagious” and so is the lack of confidence. We must demand more of ourselves and the people we choose to spend our precious time with. Always surround yourself with positive “can do” people. If you can’t find anyone like this, then simply immerse yourself into positive books, magazines, tapes and eventually you will attract positive people automatically. At first it may be difficult, all good things are, and by the way, remember that everyone has problems on some level or another,..its how you choose to react that makes the difference in the quality of your life. We must discipline ourselves to remove the negative people in our lives. Often we fail to realize how influenced we are by the people we work with, socialize with and spend time with. The solution to this is quite simple;…. “surround yourself with the kinds of people you want to be like!!!!”

Psychologists have proven that “habitual association” with critical complaining people can be enough to sabotage all your opportunities for success. So, you can begin to change your environment by thinking about those people you’d like to be like. Whether these people are alive or from the past,..think about the qualities you respect in them and focus on modeling them. Do all you can do to seek out those individuals who are going somewhere with their lives. Read all you can about them and learn to identify with them mentally. As you begin this wonderful journey of positiveness,…you’ll find that the negative people in your life will go away and you will attract other winners!

So, from this point on, once you associate with positive people you’ll begin your journey toward peace and fulfillment. Every positive action you take toward your goals and dreams will reinforce your capability to accomplish your ideals. Never lose sight of your dreams,..its totally up to you to remind yourself everyday of the rewards you will reap as you achieve your goals.

Sow it !!!……Reap it!!!!!!!

Till next time…Make It A Great Day!
