The Power of Thoughts
The Power of Thoughts
Thoughts are the second strongest power in our life next to the
spirit. Our
predominant thoughts influence our behavior and attitude and control
our actions
and reactions. As our thoughts are so are our lives.
This means that it is very important to be careful of the thoughts
that we
entertain. Thoughts are like a videocassette that we play in
the VCR of our
minds. What we play is what we see. What we think is what we
live.
To make changes it is necessary to eject the videocassette,
and insert a new one
that we like better. Then, after a while, our life will start
reflecting our thoughts.
One single thought is not strong enough to cause a change, but
if the same
thought is repeated often, then each time we think it gains
strength. Ultimately
the subconscious mind accepts it and acts on it. The great thing
about this
process is that we don't need to strain or overexert ourselves.
Everything
changes in a most natural way.
Suppose you are shy in the company of people, and you want to
get over it. If
you force yourself to talk when in company, you might find it
difficult. You might
feel timid and awkward. You might find it hard to force yourself
to talk, and if you
do, you start to stammer. You might find it hard to get the
attention of the people
you want to talk to.
You don't have to force yourself to talk when you daydream.
It is quite easy then,
as it is only in the mind. Practical daydreaming is actually
using the power of
thought. You can visualize being in the company of other people
and conversing
with them calmly and with ease. You can imagine how the words
just flow from
your mouth, and how everyone is paying complete attention to
what you say.
It is quite possible to build in the mind a perfect scene of
whatever you want to
accomplish. You can put a lot of detail, color, sound, scent
and life into these
mental scenes. If you repeat them often with faith and attention,
the
subconscious mind accepts them as real experiences. It does
not differentiate
between real and imaginary experiences, and accepts them both
as real.
An experience repeated often turns into a habit. A habit is
an automatic activity
that we perform naturally, without thinking. What does this
mean to us? Taking
the above example of a shy person, with constant positive visualization
that
person begins to feel at ease when in company. The continuous
visualization has
developed the habit of feeling comfortable with other people,
and of being able to
converse fluently.
There is no need for this person to strain, sweat and feel inconvenient.
It is as if
new software has been installed in his mind. He has developed
a new ability
without any inner fight. Well, it does not happen overnight.
It needs time, and
depends on how sincere he is, and how much time and concentration
he puts
into this action.
This process can be used for changing, improving or gaining
any kind of habit,
ability or expertise. The only effort is mental effort.
This technique is good not only for improving and changing attitudes
and habits.
It is good for gaining money and possession, promotion, improving
relationships
and traveling.
You have to choose what you want to get, and think about it
often during the day
or at several specific times during the day. These repeated
thoughts gain
strength and spur you to take action to realize them.
Other people may perceive your thoughts and unconsciously fulfill
your desire.
Constant thinking about the same subject causes you to be more
acutely aware
of opportunities, and when you see them, you find out that you
have the energy
and ambition to make use of them.
Pay attention to your thoughts. They are powerful. Learn to
accept only the
thoughts you choose.
