The thoughts we have ultimately manifest into the physical world – all of them, with no exception. And I’m not the only one to think so. There is a long tradition of thinkers and spiritual leaders who have come to the same conclusion. Amongst them is Gandhi, who put this priceless and magical wisdom into words beautifully when he said:

Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.

Maybe you are familiar with the concepts of abundance and the law of attraction. In a way, what I’m explaining has to do with all of that, too. But it’s not entirely the same.

MIND OVER MATTER. MASTER YOUR MIND. MASTER YOUR LIFE.

EVERYTHING starts in the mind.  Where you are today is a direct result of the thoughts you have been thinking.  The very thoughts you had one, two, or three years ago have brought you to this very place.  If you want to change the direction of your life, you MUST change the direction of your thoughts.

Now if everything starts in the mind with a thought or idea, the next question is …

• What type of thoughts do you have?
• What do you think about in a daily basis?

Take a minute to ponder on that…. Keep in mind that on a daily basis we have some 70,000 thoughts that go in and out of our minds.  YES you heard right… 70,000!!!  With that many how are we to know which ones to pay attention and which ones to let go of… I know many days I feel the same way.

Now let me ask you this…

• Do you think about what you think about?

Sometimes we don’t even realize the influence our thoughts have on us nor do we realize how much our thoughts matter. The truth is, our thoughts hold great power over us emotionally, spiritually, and behaviorally. The things we dwell and ruminate on are like the rudder of a ship; they steer and guide our emotions and affections. Like the invasive southern Kudzu vine, our wandering thoughts can grow and spread, wrapping itself around our hearts until it suffocates and chokes our joy. Over time, our thoughts can spill out into our actions. As Jesus said, “For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of” (Matthew 12:34).

As believers, what we think matters. Because Jesus bought and redeemed us from sin, we are new creations. We have died to our former selves (Romans 6:6). This includes our thought life. When we think untrue and sinful thoughts, we are not living like the new creations that we are.  “Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds…But that is not the way you learned Christ!— assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.” (Ephesians 4:17, 20-24).

If You Don’t Mind, Then It Doesn’t Matter

It’s time… to mind your mind and to decide to let go of the things that don’t really matter. Draw clear boundaries for your mind. As a master choose what you prefer to focus your attention on and stay stress-free and light. And remember… if you don’t mind, then nothing really matters that much!
