THESE WORDS BY HENRY VAN DYKE ARE SO TRUE. READ, UNDERSTAND AND MEMORIZE THEM!
This poem, thoughts are things, was written by Henry Van Dyke and it was used by Bob Proctor and Mary Morrissey to close chapter 2 of their famous program, the eleven forgotten laws entitled: THE LAW OF THINKING.
The law of thinking is a very powerful law and its foundation is the understanding that: AS A MAN THINKETH IN HIS HEART, SO IS HE.
I am not even attempting to comment on the power of our thoughts here because, in reality, it has so much depth. But most importantly, all that we need to know about the power of our thoughts have already been said and all we need to do is to go find them, study them, understand them and apply them in our lives.
The greatest philosophers, leaders, scientists and indeed all great men disagreed on many things except this one fact: that we become what we think about most of the time. That thought is the most powerful force in the universe and that by changing our thoughts, we can change our lives! In fact, there is an acronymn in the process of manifestation called T-F-A-R. This explains that our thoughts cause our feelings, our feelings cause our actions and our actions produce the results that we see in our lives today. Bringing in the principle of cause and effect, our thoughts are the cause in our lives while the conditions, circumstances and environment of our lives are the effects. The implication is that if we want to change our lives(the results) then we need to first change our thoughts. James Allen wrote a classic called AS A MAN THINKETH which discusses the power of our thoughts and this book is one that every human should read.
While I have many favourite quotes from that book and would find it difficult telling you which I prefer to the others, here is one short quote from the book that I very quickly memorized when I started studying the book: MIND IS THE MASTER POWER THAT MOULDS AND MAKES, AND MAN IS MIND, AND EVER MORE HE TAKES THE TOOL OF THOUGHT, AND SHAPING WHAT HE WILLS, BRINGS FORTH A THOUSAND JOYS, A THOUSAND ILLS. WE THINK IN SECRET AND IT COMES TO PASS. OUR ENVIRONMENT IS BUT OUR LOOKING GLASS.
I never intended writing more than four lines on this, but it just kept flowing. I have to force my self to stop typing at this point. But before I go, let me tell us the greatest secret in all this. We deceive ourselves into thinking that we think. Sounds awkward, but it is true. Our minds are always busy because our five senses are feeding the brain with information at every given point in time. That does not constitute thought. Real thought is FOCUSED thought energy directed towards a particular goal. My former boss will tell me in 2008, "Being busy is not business"
Finally, really watch and listen to the video below. It is the conclusion of the law of thinking by Bob Proctor and Mary Morrissey. You are going to learn from and love it. All credits for the video to Bob Proctor(one of the greatest teachers of the mind and the power of thought) and Mary Morrissey.
