Reflections from "As a man thinketh" by James Allen

"A man can only rise, conquer and achieve by lifting up his thoughts. He can only remain weak, and abject, and miserable by refusing to lift up his thoughts. Before a man can achieve anything, even in worldly things, he must lift his thoughts above slavish animal indulgence."

Awareness: For me, this speaks to the resolution that must be taken and committed to wholeheartedly before anything is conquered or achieved. If I persist in low thinking there will be no achievement and weakness will remain the king of the day.

Change: I will continue to lift up my thoughts daily.

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...
