Are you happy with where you are in life or would you like to make some changes?

If you find that you don't like where you are in life you must ask yourself what thoughts you are engaging in that are bringing about your undesirable circumstances. What is actually going on in your conscious mind? Are you thinking thoughts of peace, prosperity, and happiness? Or, are you thinking thoughts of doom and gloom?

Thoughts are powerful forces of energy and can only come from your own mind, and we should understand things do not just happen accidentally. Everything that happens in your life happens for a reason. Since you are the only one in charge of your mind, you create the thoughts that create the circumstances in your life.

We must understand that what we ponder and think about sets the course for our lives, because what we ponder and think about gets magnified and becomes attracted to us. It's "cause and effect."

Cause and effect says, "Think repetitive thoughts, reap their physical manifestations."

Most of what we are experiencing in life has been attracted by our own subconscious minds because these programings are creating our reality.

You cannot fool your subconsious mind. Whatever you continually tell it, it will eventually act upon. Any impulse of thought which is repeatedly passed on to the subconscious mind will finally be accepted and acted upon, which proceeds to translate that impulse into it's physical equivalent. The subconscious has no intellect at all. It only does what it is designed to do, and that is to follow instructions.

We all have a tape playing in our heads that we do not even realize is there. This tape is the programming in our subconscious that keeps us in a condition we are familiar with, even if it is undesirable.

Proverbs 23:7 says, "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he." This "thinking" is not a conscious thinking as most people believe. That would be the "thinking" in the mind. Thinking in the heart is the subconscious. It is the subconscious mind that controls the automatic things a person does, what he thinks, and what he attracts.

Most of our current circumstances were birthed from our thoughts, and at any time we choose, we can change it all. We have both the ability and the responsibility to make better choices beginning today. God said in Deuteronomy 30:19, "I set before you life and death, blessing and cursing, therefore, choose life."

I believe God gives us choices to make regarding our own quality of life. By telling us to choose, He is referring to our thoughts, our beliefs, and our words. By us choosing our thoughts, beliefs, and words, we automatically program our subconscious minds through repetition, for repetition is the key to using the power of the subconscious.

Have you ever heard it said that if you tell yourself something long enough you'll begin to believe it? Since this is true, the simplest way to attract the things you desire is to hold a mental picture of what you want as long as possible and as often as possible. Feel that you already have what you desire with certainty and you will see it become manifested in your life.

Our conscious mind is the source of thought and our subconscious is the computer that is programmed by it. By a pattern, or habit of thinking, we program our subconscious mind through repetitious affirmations and creative visualizations. With this knowledge we are able to change our circumstances for the better.
