Whats the most important thing in life?
Your mind.
Did you know that just by thinking of eating a piece of delicious apple pie you can spike your insulin, your mouth can begin to water and you can actually taste sweetness in your mouth.
Charles Swindoll, the highly acclaimed teacher and author, put it this way:
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do... I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent how I react to it. And so it is with you... We are in charge of our attitudes.
My son who had anxiety issues early on in life…
Think of the lottery…
Its hard to have a positive attitude when your inner dialogue is negative.
So how do you have a positive attitude?
Quite simple: you don’t change your mindset to everything is going to be great…
You change it to hope… hope in God, hope in Christs word, You build hope from what you have seen God do in the past.
A hopeful mindset is a positive mindset
You speak hope to those you meet.
You take time daily to note good things.
If things don’t go well then you always chalk it up to a learning experience.
Hang with positive people
Read inspiring stories
Walk in to every room building situation with a huge smile like you own the place.
Choose humor when things don’t work out
Choose joy
Choose perseverance
Choose your attitude… don’t let the weather choose it, your bank account, your friends, your marriage,
Is your negative attitude making life better or worse?
You work and save and buy an amazing sports car… would you let anyone drive it?
Your mind is even more valuable… don’t let anyone crappy mindset drive it.
Phil. 4:8 Finally, believers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable and worthy of respect, whatever is right and confirmed by God’s word, whatever is pure and wholesome, whatever is lovely and brings peace, whatever is admirable and of good repute; if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think continually on these things [center your mind on them, and implant them in your heart].
