Reflections from "As a man thinketh" by James Allen


"Every act of man is as a result of thought. Character can only manifest in environment and circumstance. Even the body responds to the thoughts a man allows, good thoughts encourage a strong, graceful body and the reverse is true."
Awareness: As I continue to grasp this concept, I'm developing a greater appreciation for the thoughts that I entertain in my mind and I now truly understand that they will eventually manifest in my environment/circumstance.
Take action: Continue to examine my thoughts and take charge.

Book Recommendation: Today Matters by John C. Maxwell

Hello Hope you're well. I wanted to quickly share with you a book I've been reading over the past couple of months.  It is called Today Matters by John C. Maxwell. In Today Matters , Maxwell advises that "the secret of your success is determined by your daily agenda. Make the decision once, then manage it daily. Successful people make the right decisions early and manage those decisions daily." He identifies 12 areas of life in which he believes the right decisions should be made. Once made, these decisions should be practised on a daily basis. I particularly enjoyed chapter 7 - Today's Thinking Gives Me An Advantage. John outlines various types of thinking including intentional thinking, big-picture thinking, creative thinking, etc. He explains the benefit of finding a time and space to practise the habit of good thinking daily. For me, my focus right now is intentional and creative thinking. You can purchase your copy of Today Matters...

Reflections from “As a man thinketh” by James Allen

Photo by Thought Catalog on Unsplash "Victories attained by right thought can only be maintained b watchfulness. Many give way when success is assure, and rapidly fall back into failure.  All achievements, whether in the business, intellectual, or spiritual world, are the result of definitely directed thought, are governed by the same law and are of the same method; the only difference lies in the object of attainment." Awareness - I must always be alert and watchful over my thoughts, there can be no slacking in this area. Made me think of all the scriptures that admonish to be alert, watchful and of a sober mind. Change / Take Action - I will continue to watch my thoughts so I don't loose ground or slip back into what i've conquered.
