Harness Your Power: Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life

When we feel unhappy about the results we are getting in our lives, too often we look to blame external circumstances.  What if instead, we take a peek inside -- examine your mind and your thinking closely! 

Small thinking creates small living.  Empowered thinking creates empowered living.

The choice of thought is always ours.  But we often don't realize this and go with whatever flow of thinking comes into our mind.  Things like, "I'm no good...I can't do it....I'm never going to make it...I'll never find the love I want...I'm damaged goods nobody would love me....I'm just not smart enough, strong enough or good enough to get what I want in life."

Does any of that type of thinking sound vaguely familiar to you?

Take a peek this week.  Look at your thinking.  Examine it closely.  Do so by writing down the thoughts on paper and asking yourself, "Is the way I'm thinking about myself and life helping me to create a life I love or is it keeping me from what I want?"

Be honest.

If you need some help in transforming your thoughts, that is my specialty.

As the Thought Dr., I believe that as we heal our thoughts, we can heal every aspects of our lives.  It takes time and practice.  It takes honesty and willingness.  It takes dedication and discipline.  AND once you get the hang of it you will be amazed at the way you bloom!

Harness Your Power: Daily Dedication

Have you noticed how quickly a day goes by?  Days slide into weeks and then melt into months.  Since time moves so fast, it is crucial to consciously focus our energy on our dreams.

Consider this simple formula - Dreams + Dedication = Success

Why aren’t more of us successful? We all have dreams.  (If you aren't sure of what your dreams are, check out my video - Write Your Next Chapter. )   Even if we know what we want in 2010, many of us lack the dedication to see our ideas through to successful completion.

How dedicated are you to your personal success? “Most of us serve our ideals by fits and starts. The person who makes a success of living is the one who sees his goal steadily and aims for it unswervingly. That is dedication.” (Cecil B. Demille)

Many of us start the New Year with big hopes and dreams. We may even take the time to write down our goals. Yet, few of us remain focused DAILY on the ideal, goals and desires we have for ourselves.

Consider implementing these ideas:

STAY FOCUSED. DO A DAILY DEDICATION:

To stay on target, I recommend you take at least 5 minutes each day, at the beginning of the day, to remind yourself what you are aiming for.  Intentionally review your dreams and goals. Be clear on what actions you can take TODAY to take steps close to your dreams.  Say a prayer for Divine help, support and guidance.

TAKE DAILY BABY STEPS!

Yes, small steps add up.  Do your part.  Follow your guidance.  Focus your energy.  Do the legwork that comes to mind.  Though these steps might seem insignificant, they are essential in making progress to realize your big dreams.

HOLD YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE. End the day with DEDICATION:

Each day before going to bed, do a five-minute review – did you stay focused on your goals? Did you make any progress on them? If so, pat yourself on the back.

If not, what distracted you? Can you remove these distractions and disruptions? Renew your commitment. Say a prayer.

Use these three ideas every day the entire year.  You will be amazed at the progress you can make with this type of clear dedication.

In the words of the great American football coach, Vince Lombardi, “A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the DEDICATION, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done.”

I'm practicing these ideas with my own dreams.  They keep me on track.
I'm here to help and support you in creating a life you love.
