Mental Cleanse Chapter 1 - Thoughts Are Things
This is what I learned from the last time I read Chapter 1 of “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill.
I shared this with my Mastermind Group at Mentoring For Free, the publisher of “Success in 10 Steps” by Michael Dlouhy.
Chapter 1
Thoughts Are Things
They truly are things. I’ve seen the effect they have
on water. I’ve seen the effect my thoughts have in
influencing other people. I’ve felt the effect of
others’ thoughts on me.
Every word, action, or thing I’ve created began with
thoughts.
Thought habits. I find myself guilty of the habit of
thinking in terms of finite resources - assuming things
will perpetually be as they are now.
This comes from paycheck mentality. All the years I
spent as someone’s employee taught me to plan and
budget according to the limits of my paycheck.
When I owned a business I thought in terms of
increasing my revenue by expanding my market. I prefer
the habit of thinking THIS way.
These two modes of thought battle within my head, like
piloting a boat between two opposing currents.
I know it is an ongoing process to always make course
corrections to veer into the flow of abundance and
prosperity.
Am I three feet from gold? Or two feet? Or maybe five?
Or ten? Or even twenty?
Doesn’t matter. I’m not stopping until I reach the
gold!
And once I reach the gold, I won’t stop digging as long
as I have the power to dig.
Heck, maybe I’ve already reached the gold! Did I ever
consider that?
The power of Henry Ford’s thought probably drove his
engineers nuts. Ford refused to accept what they
insisted - that an 8-cylinder engine cast in ONE block
was not possible.
His dogged determination eventually forced SOMEONE to
think outside the box:
“Why do pistons HAVE to go straight up and down? Why
couldn’t they just angle toward each other in a “V”
formation? THEN we could have TWO rows of pistons
turning the SAME SHAFT!”
…And the V-8 engine became REALITY!
Thank You Michael, Linda and my Mastermind Team for
Your navigation assistance and for expanding my
thinking beyond the box.
See You at the gold mine!
Your Friend and Servant,
