As humans we have been given great power.  Why is it that we don’t really “get it”? The power I’m talking about is the ability to think and speak.   Every word you speak and every thought you think creates your future. Unfortunately, very few people I know take this to heart and learn how to create positive thinking for a full rewarding life.  Since the mind does not distinguish what thoughts or seeds it receives, it is up to us to develop the habit of feeding it only positive thoughts and words.  

As soon as we begin to eliminate negative thoughts, our lives change for the better. We stop being judgmental, critical, and angry. Instead, we begin to set in motion positive thoughts, which start the process of attracting positive, good experiences back to us. If you do nothing else, you must become aware of your thoughts and identify them before they are spoken.  A good book to read on this subject is Napoleon Hill’s, Think and Grow Rich. 

I’m reminded of my mother’s message which she repeated over and over again to me, “think before you speak”.  I’m not sure she or I totally understood what she was saying but today I know it means, take “a pause” before you say anything.  This small but very important action helps you to take stock and check what side you are coming from, the positive or negative.

Being mindful that the words you speak can change your life. These seeds will create the future you desire.  Remember, like everything else in life it takes great courage to commit to learning how to take, “the pause”.
