FEED YOUR MIND DAY 52 - READING EXTRACT

"When you are praying or 'treating' about a particular thing, you should handle it, mentally, very carefully indeed. The ideal way is not to think about it at all except when you are actually praying about it. Moreover, to talk to other people about it, it is exceedingly likely to invite failure. Whenever you think about any subject, you are treating t with your thought - eighter for good or evil."

I'm going to start with a tiny disclaimer: Emmet Fox lived in the last century (1886-1951), and so, sometimes, the extract from his books ( and this one we are reading together) may sound old-fashioned. The important things to focus is the concepts and lessons rather than the language. Disclaimer over. Your thoughts create, and here, Fox talks about not focusing constantly on negative language and problems. Firstly, you are unlikely to be able to think about a solution from a mind absorbed in the problem. Secondly, what you focus on amplifies. Which means more problems. Quarantine your thoughts. 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!

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blog is based on Around the Year with Emmet Fox, a collection of 365 daily mediations/devotionals made from Emmet Fox's unpublished lecture notes and manuscripts and passages from his books.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.
