Your Thoughts Create Things


Your thoughts create everything in your life, from the material world you inhabit, to the body you live in, to the level of health you get to enjoy, to the relationships you have and even the spiritual choices you make. Don’t you think that something, which has the ability to shape everything in your experience, namely your thoughts, should get some special attention? You can no longer allow them to just randomly float through your mind, like a piece of flotsam floating aimlessly around on the ocean. It is time to consciously order your thoughts by creating a set of guidelines for directing them in the future.

What are these guidelines?

The guidelines I am referring to are a crystal clear vision statement, which is written down, easily understood and repeated regularly throughout your day. Once you understand where you want your life to go in the future and you support this picture with a set of detailed strategic plans, you are able to order your thoughts, which will in turn drive you to take the daily action. Consistent, directed thoughts, which direct you to take the right goal specific action daily, will always result in super achievement.

Everything Starts as a Thought

Everything you see around you today was first CONCEIVED in someone’s imagination and then with unwavering BELIEF and a dose of daily inspired action, they turned a simple electrical charge in their mind, into something real and tangible. You too can convert your thoughts into something real and tangible, if you are prepared to follow the simple principal described above, where you order your thoughts so that they guide you to take the right goal specific action daily.
 
Have Huge Expectations

It takes as much energy to create a huge set of goals as it does to create a very limited set, which does not stretch you at all. Are your thoughts and expectations in line with what you are truly capable of achieving or are you selling yourself short by holding onto those small, uninspiring dreams and goals? Create “HUGE” expectations about everything. Dare to dream really big, inspiring dreams. The larger your expectations, the greater will be the outcomes or results you can create in the future. You will never exceed your own expectations, so stop limiting your potential with small nebulous dreams and dare to see great possibility in the future.
Live life, be creative and have huge EXPECTATIONS. 

It is those very expectations that will inspire you to extend yourself and drive you to achieve your full potential. Limited expectations will deliver limited results, whilst HUGE expectations will deliver the results you deserve. You truly are magnificent and armed with a mind which is filled with ordered thoughts, which drive you to take the right actions daily, you can achieve anything
.
Choose your Thoughts Wisely

Choose your thoughts wisely and strive for excellence every day. Ask yourself this question throughout your day - “Is this the most effective way to invest my time”? Whenever you feel that you are not utilizing your time efficiently, immediately identify a more productive way to invest your time and alter your activities accordingly. You can become a super achiever if you use your thoughts to inspire the right daily actions and you utilise you time effectively.

Use your Time Wisely

Until you stop expending your energy on the small stuff, you will never have room to make the really important things happen for you. Discover that one thing that will help you make a meteoric stride toward your success and then apply consistent and persistent effort daily until it is done. All super achievers know the value of prioritisation. Focus your energy on carrying out the right priority actions every day and success is not only possible, but inevitable.

Travel to the Future

Clarity of Thought and a Written down Vision, allows you to travel to the future and see the reward, which awaits you. Once you know the promise tomorrow holds, it is far easier to pay the price of consistent effort today. This clarity of thought allows you to start rehearsing your future by visualizing it in your NOW? The more often you do this the more structural tension you create between your current reality and the wonderful future you have envisioned. This structural tension will help you to stay inspired, even when things get tough.

Keep Rehearsing your Future

No stage performance would ever be successful or a hit without rehearsal. Actors spend hours doing things over and over again until they perform perfectly. When you apply this principle in your life, visualizing yourself performing the goal specific actions you need to succeed perfectly, you dramatically increase your chances of creating your future, exactly the way you want it.

Invest the effort to order your thoughts, create a vision and a set of detailed strategic plans to guide you, take inspired action daily, visualise your future success in the now and every possibility becomes available to you. You now have the formula for unlocking your dreams, now all that is required, is your commitment and a healthy dose of daily discipline and you can have, do and be anything you want.
