Thoughts Have Power

Barbara Grizzuti Harrison, an American journalist, believed that “all acts performed in the world begin in the imagination." Lord Buddha said that "we are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts, with our thoughts we make the world."

This quote highlights the importance of the power of our thoughts. Typically, whatever our thoughts are, come into fruition. People might think that our thoughts have no power over us, but do they? How many times have we thought about our resentments and acted on them? How many times have we said that we wanted to do something and then did it? How many times did we obsess over alcohol and drugs, and then use? How many times have we given power to our thoughts, when we didn't want to?

As Albert Einstein said, "Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions."

I challenge you today to work on challenging your thoughts. Which ones do you need to give power to? Which ones do you need to believe? Which ones do you want to act on?

Peace & love to all
