When we talk about the power of the mind usually it seems like the majority of us believe one of two thoughts. Either we believe that the mind is somewhat powerful but we ignore it for the most part because “That is not for me”. Or we go to the other extreme of thinking that the mind is so powerful you can accomplish anything and everything you put your mind to.
The conclusion I feel that we need to come to is somewhere in the middle.
You see, the person who ignores the power of the mind is honestly going to miss out on a lot of accomplishments because they didn’t tap into the power the mind has over the body. This is what enables them to hit their goals, change themselves, and reach that thing they thought was unreachable. To you, I say it is time to start tapping into that power. When you start visualizing your future and affirming in your mind what you want to do, you will start to naturally pursue whatever it is that you are wanting to do. Yes, it is still a lot of hard work, but it is worth it because you know you are going to be successful.
Now to you who are on the side of the other extreme where you think the power of the mind is all that you need, I encourage you to make sure you are actually taking action. You see, in our culture today we are told you can be anything that you want, you just have to believe it. Well, number one, that is a bunch of bull because I can believe that I am going to be in the NFL someday, but as a 43 year old guy with a dad bod, it is not going to happen. No matter how hard I believe in it and how much I might want it, it is not going to happen. Number two, you can believe you can be someone or do something so much, but if you take no action then it is just a fantasy. You see, it is time to take action. You have been believing, but what have you done to make that belief a reality?
We will always find what we are looking for.
If you are looking to fail in whatever change you are trying to accomplish, you will find that almost all the time you will fail. If you are looking to succeed in whatever you are changing then you will almost always succeed.
So my friends, in conclusion, let us make sure that we are tapping into the power of the mind, but let’s couple it with taking action! What are you looking for? Failure? Success?
