"Whether you think you can or think you can't... your right!


Like Henry Ford said…”whether you think you can or can’t – you’re right” – it’s really that simple!

 

I am amazed at how many people I talk to who keep telling themselves that life is complicated and tough.  I have spent the last three months reading and re-reading Covey’s – 7 Habits of Highly Effective People as part of a research project. One of my favorite quotes from the book is – “we do not see the world as it is but as we are!” And like Henry Ford’s quote says, I don’t doubt for one minute that for these people in particular their lives are just that – complicated and tough!  However, there really is a choice for your life and guess what – it’s really that simple. 

 

So many great writers of the past have told us time and again that how we think determines our life, our reality.  Recently I started following the work of John Kehoe, who is one of those writers.  I find his way of explaining how our mind works to be anything short of amazing. Kehoe stresses that our circumstances and situations never keep us down – it is our thoughts that keep us stuck. 

 

So learn to regularly feed your consciousness so that your situation can change – it’s really that simple! Change your thoughts and feed them daily, just like tending a garden Kehoe says, and harvest the rewards of a well-maintained mind.
