“WE BECOME WHAT WE THINK ABOUT” said Earl Nightingale.
Many great writers, philosophers, and religious leaders have agreed that our thoughts determine our actions. The famous philosopher Napolean Hill said-“ what the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.
How this principle works
If
you constantly think about a particular goal, then you’ll take steps to move
toward the goal. We can understand this principle with an example- Ram thinks
he is capable of earning 25 lakhs per year. Like a magnet, he will attract
those employment opportunities that will lead him in that direction. As long as
Ram clings to that thought, he will reach his goal of earning 25 lakhs per
year.
As
you might expect, this concept is not limited to monetary goals. Suppose in
exams you are scoring 75 marks right now. By concentrating on bringing that
score up to 95… and by truly believing in your ability to do so…. You will work
and begin to take steps to move forward with that goal. You may take extra
lessons. You may practice more. But in the end, you will bring your score down
and reach your objective.
So,
if you keep focused on the positive and believe in yourself you can achieve any
goal in your life.
The
lesson: Change your
thinking and you can change your life! You will become what you think about.
Before
concluding, I would like to say that positive thinking doesn't mean you will
achieve your goal overnight. Success requires effort, commitment,
and patience.
