My Weekly Devotional - "Change The Way You Think" Ro 12:2 GWT
VISIT WEBSITE (learn more)
For things to change for the better, you must "change the way you think." For example:
(a). View setbacks as detours, not dead ends. Winners don't just face adversity; they embrace it, knowing it leads to future success.
(b). Tune out the critics and focus on doing your best. Anybody who accomplishes anything worthwhile has to overcome naysayers.
(c). When you're afraid, praise God until your faith rebuilds. It may take a while, but praise and thanksgiving never fail, and will give you the strength to go on.
(d). When you fail, look for the lesson and remember all the times you've succeeded. Weed out self-doubt and replace it with scriptural self-talk.
(e). When you're heading into battle, visualize yourself winning in God's strength-with Him "all things are possible" (Mt 19:26).
(f). Instead of focusing on the past and worrying about the future, focus on the now-that's where your influence is greatest. remember, God said, "As your days, so shall your strength be" (De 33:25 NKJV).
(g). Instead of complaining, work on identifying solutions, and more will come to you.
(h). When you're distracted, focus on your breathing, take a walk and clear your mind, think on what you can control, and surrender the rest to God.
(i). When you're lonely, remember the people who've helped you this far and who love and support you.
(j). When you're fatigued, take time to rest-but never ever give up! Finish strong in everything you do.
(k). When you're under pressure and under scrutiny, smile and have fun. You only live once. Life is short...so seize the moment!
Regards and Blessings to you,

Thanks you Jack for such an inspirational post! Your thoughts become things. L&S
This is such an inspirational PR, Jack. Thanks for sharing it and I will too. Blessings!
You are so right Jack, you only live once so go for it !!
Thank you Jack what an uplifting message and so full of truth. Negative thoughts can ruin you and your day. Many times when we have problems we get bogged down in self pity and that's about like being in quick sand so you need to get out of it soon as you can or you will sink and the quick sand will kill you.
Thank you again for all the positivity!
Yes indeed your thoughts are very powerful and must be positive all the time because your subconscious works day and night and will act on what's injected in it even when you're asleep. It's not a good thing to be looking at the news before bedtime. My point is it will be negativity that's inside your subconscious mind.
