YOUR THOUGHTS, YOUR LIFE.

 


One of the greatest assets God ever gave man is the mind. The mind, when engaged and used properly can produce tremendous results in the life of an individual, the opposite is the same too. You're a sum total of the most predominant thoughts in your mind. The things that occupy your mind most is what defines your physical reality because as within, so without. Whatever that enters into the mind, comes out in a life.



Everything is created twice, first in the mind before the manifestation of the physical equivalence of that which has already been conceived in the mind. Everything we see in our world today was first a thought conceived in the mind of a person before manifesting. All great inventions like the airplane, submarine, rockets, Internet etc were all thoughts in the mind of the inventors. It sounds easy but powerful. Your current level in life; being it financially, relationally, health wise, career wise, spiritually etc is directly proportional to your mind-settings (mindset).



 





It is just like looking into a mirror. When one looks into a mirror, he sees an exact reflection of his image in the mirror. Our physical realities are just mirror images of everything in our minds. 



The mind is so powerful that it has the power to attract to you conditions that are exactly the same as your thoughts. You have probably seen how a magnet is able to attract magnetic substances to itself. That's exactly how the mind works. The mind can never attract conditions that have not been conceived in the mind. It only attracts similar conditions to you. People mostly complain about the outwards manifestations in their lives forgetting about what actually produced these outcomes. Man can never be changed from the outside, rather from the inside out. Anyone who doesn't like his or her physical realities should trace it back to his or her mind and make the corrections there. You can't be having thoughts of failure and emerge as a successful person. It will never work. 



The mind can also be likened to a fertile soil and thoughts like seeds planted on the soil. A fertile soil has the capacity to make whatever seed planted on it grow into a very big tree with some husbandry activities like applying fertilizer and water to the plant regular. The mind is the fertile soil, the thoughts are the seeds and the continuous pondering over thoughts is like a farmer supplying a plant with all the necessary nutrients needed for growth and development. The thoughts now grow deeper roots in the mind, becomes like a big tree and produce fruits for the owner. As this point, it becomes very difficult for the tree to be uprooted and that is how strongholds in the mind are formed. It is therefore your responsibility as a farmer to check the kind of plant(thoughts) your permit to grow up on your fertile soil (mind). Be very intentional about the moment to moment thoughts that occupy your mind since they are able to produce fruits of themselves for you; being either good or bad.

CHRONOS AND KAIROS

We all have the same amount of time given to us in a day. Both the rich and the poor have the same seconds, minutes and hours in a day. The correct usage of time is a major factor that differentiate successful people from unsuccessful people.  Chronos refers to the measured, continuous time. It is the forward moving time which is measured as seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years. Kairos on the other hand means the right or opportune time, a defining moment. What we do with our chronos determines what will happen to us in a Kairos moments. Most young people dream of how they will become successful one day without using their everyday (chronos )to prepare for that one day (Kairos). It is said that luck is when preparation meets opportunity.  Let me explain with this analogy. Students will be very familiar with this. Most students in the course of the semester do not really prepare for the exams they will be writing at the end of the semester. They use their chro...

DECISIONS DECIDE DESTINY

Image
Decisions are very powerful in the sense that the quality of ours lives can mostly be traced to the kinds of decisions we often make. Decisions are actually vehicles that carry us from a particular level in life to a different destination (consequence). Your current level in life is a report card of the compound effect of all decisions you made in life so far. Midwifing your current level and the glorious destiny you always think of is the quality of decisions you make momentarily. God has prepared each of us for greatness but only few people will lay hold on that which was written about them through the making of quality decisions. Your destiny coming true has a lot to do with your daily decisions and choices. According to Newton’s first law of motion, a body will continue to be at rest or in a uniform motion unless there is an external force acting on it. Similarly, any situation will remain unchanged unless a decision is made to act upon it.   The law of cause and effect al...

THE LAW OF ASSOCIATION.

Image
One of the easiest way to rise or plateau in destiny is through associations. And one of the things that define us is the kind of people we have within our circle of influence. You've probably heard the saying that "you're the average of the five people you spend the most time with". Your circle of influence defines how your life is and going to be. There is no way you will be surrounded by people with a corrupted mindset and ideology and expect your life to be different from theirs. It is against the principle of induction. In magnetism, there is a principle by which a magnetic material can be made into a magnet and that is by attaching the magnetic material to a magnet. Even though the magnetic material isn't a magnet but it can act as a magnet by reason of it being attached to the magnet. The magnet induces its magnetic properties into it which makes it behave exactly as a magnet. This same principle also works in our association with others. The kind of people...
