My Coach Mr. Herbert Harris holds me accountable to this timeless
and powerful truth. "Your life is a garden and you are the gardener"
That is Bananas!!! What gets me so excited about this is that it aligns
with Proverbs 23:7 "For as he thinketh in his heart so is he: Eat and
drink, saith he to thee: but his heart is not with thee" I believe your
thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, your
actions become your character, your character becomes your destiny.
Simply put, we can control our destiny by being the master of our
thoughts. Let that marinate in your mind for a minute. Yes you read it
correctly, it is not a type "O "You are the Master of your fate, you
are the captain of your soul. Listen to what James Allen says about the
power of your thinking" The aphorism " As a man thinketh in his heart
so is he, not only embraces the whole of man's being, but is so
comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstances of
his life.
A man's life is the complete sum of his thoughts" Wow, I love that
it. Remember you are the gardener, you can not only plant new thoughts
and ideas in the garden of your mind but you have the authority to
uproot bad thoughts or ideals. Henry David Thoreau once said "Thought
is the sculptor who can create the person you want to be" Let me
conclude by referring you to another mentor, The Apostle Paul who said"
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are
honest whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report: if
there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things"
What are you thinking? I would love to assist you with creating a new
thought life.
