FEED YOUR MIND DAY 208 - READING EXTRACT

" ... The key to life is to build the mental equivalent of what you want and to expunge the equivalent of what you do not want.

You build the mental equivalent by thinking with clearness or definiteness, and interest. Remember clarity and interest: those are the two poles ... Ninety-nine times why (people) ... do not demonstrate is that they lack feeling (interest) in their desires or prayers. ...

How are you going to expunge the wrong mental equivalent? ...

The key ... is to substitute an affirmative thought for negative thought ...".

Building (pun intended) from yesterday's teaching (repetition is key) and expanding it. We need to be clear about what we want and have 'interest', e.g. passion, being absorbed in it. And then you need to keep using affirmative thoughts (affirmation/self-talk) of what you want. Every time something comes up that tells you you can't have it, be it, do it, deny it and keep affirming in the positive. See you tomorrow x

USEFUL RESOURCE

Our consciousness has the size and strength of a sumo wrestler, but because we do not know it, we squander our abilities. That’s why I make training my mind my priority Numero 1, and so should you. You are pinching off your own power: STOP IT!

Around the year with Emmet Fox Be Your Best Self Around The Year blog is based on Around the Year with Emmet Fox, a collection of 365 daily mediations/devotionals made from Emmet Fox's unpublished lecture notes and manuscripts and passages from his books. The book was published after his passing. Emmet Fox (1886-1951) was one of the most influential spiritual leaders of the last century and the New Thought Movement together with Joseph Murphy, Norman Vincent Peale and Neville Goddard. Happy reading. Available to buy on Amazon.

Disclaimer: The book Around The Year with Emmet Fox and the extract in this daily blog are taken from, and inspired by, The Bible. Fox and The New Thought Movement and consequent teachers interpreted the Bible metaphysically. Equally, If you are religious (Christian or any other religion) or not, you can do so too. This is not a religious blog. It is a "change yourself, change the world around you" blog to motivate and inspire anyone willing to listen to achieve what they want to in life and business. #BeYourBestSelf #SelfShorts #Followme on Twitter and Instagram or buy my books.
