Positive Thought For The Day
The Art Of Self Mastery?
The Art Of Self-Mastery starts in the mind of man. Napoleon Hill said in the book “Think and Grow Rich”that
“thoughts are things.” It’s funny that he would start the book that way,but the more you look at it…it’s the Mind of Man that determines his altitude. Here’s a positive thought for the day.
As we engage ourselves into 2011,we want to make sure that we don’t make the same mistakes of the past,but we correct those things that hinder us from success and the ability to maximize our Capacity!
There are two things that will determine your success or lack thereof in life. Your Mind (thoughts) and your Will (your ability to act). Your Will is something that does not have to be trained. From a child if you (Will) to do something then you just do it without thinking or much deliberation.
“You don’t have to get it right,you just have to get it going”–Joe Schoeder.
I’m always amazed at the fact that people will give credit to the fact that there are certain laws that are in operation in the Universe,such as the law of gravity;no one can negate the fact that gravity is at work,due to the fact that it is because of gravity that we are able to stand and to be grounded.
But what about the law of thought? Whatever a man thinks in his heart…so is he (Proverbs 23:7). The law of thought is in operation every day,every hour,every minute,and every second of our lives and it is because of the mind of man that will affect every thought. Whatever you think about in your heart is what it will be…you were born as a manifestation of thought and you are able to create with thought!
2 Factors Which Affect The Mind of Man
The mind of man is affected by his environment and by his association. Ask yourself…what took place in my upbringing that has brought me to this place that I’m currently in or whom have I associated myself with and has it been profitable for me or not?
Whatever has been poured into your mind will determine your altitude. So was it good seed…or was it bad seed? If it was bad seed,then there needs to be some uprooting and depending on how long ago those seeds were planted and how deep the roots go,may determine how long you will have to uproot and the uprooting is done by planting positive seed. One truth can dispel a mountain of lies! Just as positive thought is stronger than negative thought.
If you look at nature,you’ll find that there is much to learn from even the animal kingdom. Animals are born with an instinct to do! There are certain things that we as humans by instinct or by subconscious know to do.
God has put everything in you that you need. There is nothing lacking,you must just come to terms and realize the innate ability that has been placed in you to succeed beyond your wildest imagination;but the mind has been trained otherwise. The mind has been told that you can’t and you won’t and you’re not good enough.
I say TRASH IT,UPROOT THAT NONSENSE that was planted by those that were ignorant to what they were doing. You’re Will is the thing that moves you. Let me show you…
Moses was told to go to Pharaoh and to tell him to “let my people go!”Moses says to God…whom shall I say sent me? God said tell him that I AM sent you. The I AM is the Will of God,moving,doing,living,going,it just IS,moving and acting through man’s Will,speaking to you,but because of the mind and those negative things that have been planted,your mind causes the Will to stop movement. Which is what Moses almost did… “but I am slow of speech and of a slow tongue.”Exodus 4:10
What am I saying…I’m saying to take back your rightful place on the throne of your mind…kick the little man off that has been speaking negative lies to you and know that you have a power to do anything that you will and that POWER is already in you! I hope this positive thought for the day will help you to achieve greatness!

Hi Kennard,
Great post. Adding to that:Much of life is the undoing of something that shouldn’t have been done,or could have been done differently. Life’s an inner game,everything hinges on the self,therefore self mastery is key. As humans,we’re given the ability to think at a higher level. Unfortunately,often we don’t. Or at least,not in the way we were designed to. For many,‘free will’ or ‘free thinking’ is just their belief system in disguise.
When we’re in the flow,we take giant steps forward effortlessly – there are few obstacles or problems. When we become more (of our-self),we need less. And the control is in letting go of the control. Trying to control only reinforces what we’re trying to escape from.
Some words of wisdom from the Tao;“The master accomplishes much without doing”. Knowing thyself and self mastery are key.
