Reflections from "As a man thinketh" by James Allen


Allen states that: 

"Your wishes and dreams will only come true when they are in harmony with your thoughts and actions. It is futile to fight against the circumstances. You cannot change your surroundings while continuing to think the same thoughts that brought you here. 

To improve your circumstances, improve yourself. Self-discipline is key to obtaining anything you want, no matter whether your aims are high or low. Even those who simply desire money must make many personal sacrifices to earn it. 

Think of how many more sacrifices it takes to develop a resilient, trustworthy, inspiring, fully-rounded character."

Awareness: I am no longer going to fight against circumstances; my goal is to elevate my thoughts from negative, fearful, doubtful and self-limiting to positive, manly and courageous thoughts.

With less than six months to go, there's no telling what you and I can accomplish in between that time. Don't give up hope, kee...
