A man’s way of doing things is the direct result of the way he thinks about things.
To do things in a way you want to do them, you will have to acquire the ability to think the way you want to think; this is the first step toward getting rich.
To think what you want to think is to think TRUTH, regardless of appearances.
Every man has the natural and inherent power to think what he wants to think, but it requires far more effort to do so than it does to think the thoughts which are suggested by appearances. To think according to appearance is easy; to think truth regardless of appearances is laborious, and requires the expenditure of more power than any other work man is called upon to perform.
There is no labor from which most people shrink as they do from that of sustained and consecutive thought; it is the hardest work in the world. This is especially true when truth is contrary to appearances. Every appearance in the visible world tends to produce a corresponding form in the mind which observes it; and this can only be prevented by holding the thought of the TRUTH.
Have you ever heard the statement, “If you think you can or if you think you can’t, either way your right.”
That statement basically says that your thoughts are what dictate what you do, whether you succeed or fail. And even further then that is if you fail, do you throw in the towel or do you get back on the horse.
Most of us, base what we think we can do based on the results we see around, giving no thought to actually creating a different better way of accomplishing what we want to achieve.
To think creative, new thoughts outside of what we see in front of us is one of the most difficult things to do, that is why most people don’t do it. It is the hardest thing we can do, but if we can discipline ourselves to do it, it has payoff far beyond our wildest imagination.
And it is also goes to thinking in a certain way that will bring about riches far beyond our wildest dreams.
“There is no labor from which most people shrink as they do from that of sustained and consecutive thought; it is the hardest work in the world. This is especially true when truth is contrary to appearances. Every appearance in the visible world tends to produce a corresponding form in the mind which observes it; and this can only be prevented by holding the thought of the TRUTH.”
I love this paragraph…
Think about how hard it would be to think about being rich on a constant basis, while living in poverty. Most people buckle to the reality of the situation, instead of using their thoughts to create a “new” reality for themselves.
The only way to prevent this is to create a new TRUTH for you, through your thoughts and actions. When you accept the your current results as the truth, you will continue to create the same results.
But if you build a “new” truth with your thoughts and keep them foremost in your mind, “sustained and consecutive”, the “new” TRUTH will set you free!
