Your beliefs will dictate the circumstances in your life – your reality. If we want to succeed and achieve our highest potential, we must replace negative beliefs and thought patterns we have about our self with positive ones. Your thoughts are extremely powerful and will manifest in your reality.

If you want to see what people think about themselves, just look at their lives.

Your thoughts determine your actions, which determine your results. To change your thinking from wanting to having, write down what you want fifteen times a day. Simple, yes, but you are focusing your mind and directing your thoughts to what you want to manifest in your life.

It will be more powerful if you write it down in the present time. Start your list with “I am” instead of “I will”. Keep your thought completely positive. Negative thoughts will produce negative results.

The more you think about anything the more you will believe that “that” is the way it really is.

Wanting to be a positive thinker is not enough. Just making the decision to have a positive attitude isn’t enough. The human brain needs directions, commands, pictures and to know the results you want.

Take responsibility for your “self-talk.” For one day, make a list of the words you say to yourself or about yourself. Are you saying words such as, “I can’t”, “I should”, big dummy, or my personal favorite, “I’m such an idiot.”

It takes a strong commitment, determination, and a concentrated effort to make a change in our thinking. Have you ever considered just how much of what you do – how you act, how successful you are – is dependent on how you perceive yourself?

Replace your negative thoughts with positive thoughts. No one else can do it for you.
