Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life!
Since the advent of the New Year, I have been wondering what message I will share with my people on this blog. I have thought of so many topics but they didn’t just cut it within me that i decided to wait for the perfect time. The perfect time came this morning when I read a report about how our thought limit us. The ha-ha moment came and I decided to share this with you
One thing I am convinced about is that whatever our life turns out to be today, is as a result of the thought we had yesterday. If you are experiencing any unpleasant thing in your life today, it is because of the way you have been thinking. “Nothing just happens” is one of my favourite quotes. We create our lives just in accordance with our thoughts.
If you always think of failing in anything you do, just be sure that is what you will eventually get and vice versa. If small things are happening in your life today, it is just because your thought are small. Begin to think BIG and see if BIG things will not begin to happen in your life.
When an idea comes into your mind, do you first think about its impossibility? When you think something is impossible, it will forever be impossible but if you think you can do all things, you will discover ways to carry them through. Napoleon Bonarpate said, “The word impossibility is not in my dictionary.” If you look at the world’s history when it comes to war and military prowess, Napoleon’s name is proudly etched in gold.
That is a man that has conquered so many lands just by believing in himself and his abilities. The great inventors and the businessmen we read about, are the products of their thought. What they did wasn’t significant at all but their thought. Even though a lot of people didn’t believe in them, but just like Napoleon, impossibility was never found in their thought.
If you have read “Think and Grow Rich,” you would have seen the phrase, “Whatsoever the mind of man can conceive (think) and believe, he can ACHIEVE!” There is no better truth than this. There is a Bible passage I read some years back that really blew my mind and lay credence to what Napoleon Hill is saying. We probably have read this passage several times even as kids in our Sunday schools, but the real interpretation was never revealed to us probably because our teachers do not even understand the power behind that message. Open to Genesis 11:6 and see what the last part has to say: “… and now nothing will be restrained from them which they have imagined to do.”
That statement cut a chord in my heart the very day I discovered it and since then I have always kept it close to my heart. Napoleon Hill is just restating what God has said thousand of years ago, in his book. I want you to begin from this day to see the tremendous power your thought carries. If God himself can acknowledge that your thought is so powerful to accomplish what you are imagining, then I don’t see any reason you should short-change yourself by thinking so little of yourself.
Change your thought, change your life. As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. Whatsoever the heart of man can conceive and believe, he can achieve!
This is to your success in 2010.

Great article Bola. I have read Napoleon Hill’s Book ‘Think & Grow Rich’, I think its one of the greatest books ever written on entrepreneurship and motivation.
Great article, keep the fire burning!!!!
Thanks Farai. Think and Grow Rich is a book that has touched so many lives and will still continue to for years to come.
Thanks for repeating this phrase “Whatsoever the mind of man can conceive (think) and believe, he can ACHIEVE!” at the begining of this year. Maybe we can can have more people to Memorize it, Picturize/Visualize it and most importantly Actualize this PHASE. It will change lots in their life,if anyone cares to apply this simple phrase to everything they do in life. Once again thanks for the reminder.
That was an explicit article, friend!
Surely, the way we think affects our life in the totality of it. If we must move to the top we must allow our thinking to align properly with where we are going to. For as a man thinks in his heart so is he!
You are quite right. It all has to do with our mind. If one places an imaginary limitation on what he or she is able to achieve in life, then nothing can help such an individual make progress. Whenever a man believe that a thing is possible, even when it sounds crazy, then he is on his way to making it a reality. Think and Grow Rich will remain a classic for a long time to come. The principles discussed cannot be toss aside if one really seeks financial freedom. Great post. Kudos.
Thanks man. Hope you have a GREAT 2010!
Love you.

Every success emanates from inside: the way we think, our attitude and mentality.
