While it may not be possible to predict the future, it is completely possible to change the future with your thoughts.
There comes a point in every person’s life where you have to begin to consider the patterns that continue to develop in your life. For some, it may be that they are constantly struggling financially, suffering through abusive relationships or end up with friends or girl/boyfriends that don’t add value to their life. While others may continue to find themselves involved in accidents or mishaps. Many people suffer with debilitating bouts of low self confidence and no self esteem that seemingly rob them of opportunity and success. Each of us has something in life that it seems keeps happening in one way or another and even though we have felt we have learned our life lesson, it happens again and again and again!
Ask yourself, what sort of situations or feelings do you seem
to continually and constantly, find yourself dealing with?
Human nature directs us to make bold statement about the affairs of our life. You begin thinking things like “if it wasn’t for bad luck, I would have no luck at all.” You may develop thinking patterns that you are doomed in a dead end job, stricken with the inability to have fruitful relationships or that nothing good will ever come your way. Essentially, what you are doing is confirming that your ‘bad luck’ is something that exists outside of yourself and enabling a thinking pattern to bring it into your reality. In truth, it should be no surprise that the same negative things continue to happen; because you have pretty much trained your mind to think that they would -which single handedly perpetuates you to more of the same. The bottom line is that your self confidence and self esteem is suffering and you reinforce it (sometimes subconsciously) with negative thinking patterns.
I know a person who thinks that she is accident prone. She is constantly dropping things, bumping her car into silly things that most people can avoid or losing her house keys. She loses her wallet at least once a month and can walk into a gift shop and break the most fragile item she touches. Her accident proneness bothers her deeply yet she will chuckle and continuously say things like “this always happens to me,” “this is just my luck,” “if there is something to break within a ten mile radius I will find it,” or other silly innuendos like “I am clumsy!” She defines herself outwardly and in her mind as if to make it acceptable and than is surprised that it keeps happening. What if she decided that she wasn’t clumsy and that she wasn’t going to break anything? Would things be different for her? What if it was her thinking patterns that caused her ‘sour luck’?
When it comes to how you feel about yourself, it is human nature, although not natural, to put yourself down. You may rebuke compliments that you deserve, or think that others think a certain way about you without any real way of knowing. You may spend the better part of your day having private conversations in your mind that reinforce your low self esteem. You probably call your self worse names than anyone else does. Each time you put your self down in your mind, your thought pattern is such that circumstances in your life will simply reinforce them or make them true. The problem is that most of this is because your perception is altered. Your perception is such that you will see the negativity, surround your self with it, welcome it ~ because it agrees with the way your thinking pattern has developed. As an after thought, you may feel saddened, insecure or unworthy which only begins the circle of thinking and happening over again.
The question is how do you control this negative thinking? The answer is simple! You decide that instead of feeling like a co-pilot in your mind you take the pilot’s seat and realize that you and only you, control your thoughts. It is the most simplistic thing in life. Just as easily as you can think your self into feeling insecure, you can think your self into self confidence and high self esteem. Just as you can think negative thoughts that are only from you; you can decide right now to think positive ones. Thus, the outcome, instead of being consistently negative will begin to be consistently positive. Then, you will begin thinking patterns that dub you as the luckiest, most fortunate person in the world. Each positive thought will start a new pattern in your life just as the negative ones did.
Sounds simple, doesn’t it? The first course of action is to begin paying attention, remaining completely aware of how you think, and feel. Every thought you have produces a subconscious emotional feeling. Write them down and when the negative ones filter in, quickly and succinctly turn them around. You don’t even have to believe them at first, you just have to think them!

William Wattles said in his book, “every thing (real or imagined) in this world is created out of thought first!” What are your thoughts creating? What are you thinking every day that is destining you to a life of less? Ask yourself these questions and you will see quite fundamentally that you are what you think and that what you think is always true. So, what do you have to lose by changing your mind and changing how you think?
