The Battle Starts in the Mind

Every day you are going to have negative thoughts and emotions in reaction to the noise to life’s junk. The good news is that you have the power to unleash your ability to thrive . You are ready to unleash a holy beam of thinking to cleanse these unclean thoughts out of your mind. What remains are the things of God which bring life, healing, and peace.

Use Your Will Daily
The journey of life is not for the weak of heart. Embracing the battlefield of the mind and allowing God to renew your thinking will help transform you to be authentically positive in any negative situation. There is one last component to remember; one last God-given super ability you possess. Your WILL.

How to use failure as your key to success
Let’s start with the philosophy of being willing to fail and the fact that you learn more from failing than you do succeeding.

There’s failure after failure, but those failures become a stepping stone to a much better place in life.
You can get better or you can get bitter. But the philosophy for me is you can’t get better in life unless you are willing to take some risk.
What is the biggest mistake you see people make when they’re setting goals in their life?
They don’t start because they create something in their mind – they start doubting and thinking that it’s not possible.

The biggest mistake is thinking too big, in the sense that you get overwhelmed and you start thinking of the details when you just need to be thinking of where you’re going.

Don’t worry about every small detail just start moving forward.
When coming up with a goal, it has to have meaning behind it.
Talk about the importance of asking the question “Can you imagine?”
Make sure all your self talk, the things you say in your head are positive and optimistic.
Think big, dream, put it out there in the universe, and then make day by day little mistakes – little failures towards making that dream a reality.
​

Give yourself actionable steps for how you can create that painted picture… how do you envision your future?
My advice is to sit down with piece of paper, find somewhere inspirational, and ask yourself: “What can I imagine? Where am I going to be in my dream life?” and start with a timeline.
Do not, under any circumstance, start to doubt yourself.
I think it’s about talking to your self, and saying, “I have got to take risk here.”

The passion comes from that commitment, not the other way around. Commit to something – to a direction – and once you really sink in and find your path, then the passion follows.
There is a great difference between living and making a life. Life is about meaning, it’s about purpose.

Make meaning, not money. That is the key to happiness.
