The lives we live the thoughts we think, the things we fear all play such a big part in our many failures. We ourselves create what we fear the most: ridicule, criticism, anger, being left out or talked about..
Overgeneralization: we take a single negative event and assume that event will become a pattern. (For instance, after a breakup, we conclude, “No one will ever want me. I’ll be alone forever.”) This can become a self-fulfilling prophecy, affecting our choices and the opportunities to which we avail ourselves. (If you think no one will ever want you, how much confidence to you think you’re going to give off?)
Labeling: we take a single negative action and generalize it to the person who committed it — ourselves or someone else. (For instance, after getting fired, we conclude, “I’m a failure.” Or, your spouse does something to hurt you and you conclude, “He is a selfish person.”) This, too, can become a self-fulfilling prophecy: if you treat someone as selfish, is he more or less likely to be kind to you in the future? If you tell yourself you’re a failure, what are the chances you’ll take any risks that might lead to success?
Worst-Case-Scenario Thinking: Pessimists usually say that life has taught them to be that way. They think they are protecting themselves from disappointment by expecting the worst, no matter how unlikely it might be. All this, when more often than not, the things we fear don’t even happen!
Most people have it backwards , believing that they feel or think a certain way because of their circumstances, not knowing the truth that it is their thought power that is creating those very circumstances, whether wanted or unwanted. By internalizing and applying this Truth, that your thoughts create your reality, you will grant yourself the power to create the changes you want to see manifest in your life. Reality creation is an inside job.
Thought power is the key to creating your reality. Everything you perceive in the physical world has its origin in the invisible, inner world of your thoughts and beliefs. To become the master of your destiny, you must learn to control the nature of your dominant, habitual thoughts. By doing so, you will be able to attract into your life that which you intend to have and experience as you come to know the Truth that your thoughts create your reality.
There is a great deal of power in what you think, not because of metaphysics, but because thoughts become words, and words become actions, and actions bear consequences in our lives, whether good or bad..
