In life, people encounter different kinds of challenges of varying severity. While some are able to overcome, some are seemingly unable to make progress towards resolving their challenges.
It is even possible to see two different individuals facing the same challenge and while one resolves it with finality, the other remains steeped in the challenge and appears to have no hope of a resolution.
So what really makes the difference between these individuals? It is actually in their perception of the challenge in their minds.
If you have been reading my write-ups of late, you would have noticed a trend where I constantly refer to how our thoughts give direction to our lives.
The difference between the individual who is able to overcome every challenge in his or her life and the one who is not is simply in the way they see the problem in their minds via their thoughts.
According to Dr Caroline Leaf, human brain researcher and author of the best selling book Who Switched off my brain?, when God created us, we were wired up with faith based emotions (love, peace, joy, etc) but we humans learn our fear based emotions (anxiety, fear, doubt, etc).
Drawing from Dr Leaf’s comments, it is obvious to see that humans by their very nature create their own problems. Dr Leaf has further said that after God, our thoughts are the second most power tool we have!
For those who do not know, we have control over our thoughts. Now what all these means is that by your very thoughts, you can get out of any situation because according to Dr Caroline Leaf, there is a part of your brain called the free will where you can process what comes from the outside into us.
Now as long as you are able to consciously screen off negative thoughts or fear based emotions before they get into you, only positive thoughts and faith based emotions would pass.
What happens next is that you will naturally attract into your life the things you focus your thoughts on. Unfortunately, on the other hand, if negative thoughts and fear based emotions enter into your system through your brain, it will also naturally attract your very fears into your life.
Your brain/mind would not filter negative thoughts out but would accept whatever gets in as long as you consciously allow that to happen. This explains why many people fall sick and remain so for a long time because they have consciously allowed it via their thoughts.
It also explains why many people struggle through life to get things done. Their thought life is the one thing they need to work on to change their lives for good.
Accordingly to the late American playwright and Congresswoman Clare Booth Luce, “there are no hopeless situations; there are only people who have grown hopeless about them”.
In essence, what this means is that there are really no hopeless situations in life. You have absolute control over your life’s situations and you can turn around any situation in your life for good.
It also means you can achieve whatsoever you desire without struggling for it. It all begins with your thought life. Isn’t God our Father wonderful to have given us this beautiful gift of thoughts?
It is His greatest gift to humanity and we should be grateful to Him always.
