If You Can Dream It, You Can Build It
When I founded MotivationToMove.com, I did it largely based on the simple concept that when we control of our thoughts, we not only change our body, we change our entire life!
As a guy who lives in Orlando, I spend a lot of time at Disney World, where one of my favorite Walt Disney quotes, “If you can dream it, you can build it”, is played out in living color. What a dreamer; what a builder!
Still, if you have ever wanted something different in your life, have you noticed your mind doesn’t always get the memo?
What’s going on has everything to do with your Mindset – because no matter what you might be thinking – you are thinking something.
Your Mindset is simply the sum total of all your beliefs, values, identity, expectations, attitudes, habits, decisions, opinions, and thought patterns about yourself, others, and how life works.
Can you see the beginnings of a problem?
For all of us, our Mindsets are handed down from our families, society, religious authorities, and teachers, and we live them automatically. The good news is, we can change our thoughts and Mindsets to attract more of whatever it is we want.
To do that, we only need to recognize that your Mindset is composed of body, conscious mind, and unconscious mind – with the conscious mind giving the order, and the unconscious mind carrying it though the body. To change to a new Mindset and choose a new life path is as simple as creating a clear mental picture of your new Mindset.
I know, you’ve heard that before… but here’s how to make it work.
Once you have the clear picture of what you want, give 100% of your attention and energy to your new thoughts, attitudes, and beliefs. Always be thinking about your new Mindset – every minute of every single day. And I mean always!
When you focus your thoughts on what you want, the old Mindset will slowly wither and die, replaced by exactly what you are thinking – so make sure you are thinking about what you really want in our life!
