When you have the time to think, what
do you think about? Are you thinking of
what your life will amount to? Or you are obsessed with your current state and
carried away without giving thoughts to the future?
I understand that people of
this generation are carried away with every sort of vanity of this world, that
they don't take time to think of their lives and how they have been living it.
What we spend our time thinking about, we develop into. Even the Bible says “as
a man thinks in his heart so is he”. If
you spend your whole day having negative thoughts, planning revenge, lusting, I
tell you, your life will amount to nothing great.
I once read that "any achievable
goal realized in life has been conceived right from the inside at a point in
time, far before it was realized. If we can perceive it, then we can conceive
it and our conception will propel us to believe what we can achieve". To be great in life first and foremost,
starts from our thoughts. You want to be great in life but you've never thought
about greatness, how to achieve it, why you want it and what you will do with
it.
Thinking is a vital part of life that
people need to pay attention to, but these days when you see people thinking,
they are either thinking of abstract things or things that are irrelevant like
sex, parties, latest fashion trends in town, and so on. Some people even think
of becoming the President not for the betterment of the nation or the people
living in it, rather for their selfish interest and how they will embezzle
public funds.
Your life, consciously or
unconsciously moves in the direction of your most dominant thought. So if your
most dominant thought is irrelevant, then your life is moving towards
irrelevance You might not know but unconscious you start to do or fulfill that
which you think about the most, that is why the Bible mandates us to have a
pure and Godly thought. If you are someone that thinks about sex allot, you
notice that you start having this urge to do it, at this point masturbation
sets it.
Great people are full of great
thought. To achieve greatness in life, you have to be filled with the thought
of being great and doing great things. Greatness is not a day job, it is an
accumulated effort and no part most be left out, there is no shortcut to it,
you either achieve greatness or you don't.
My point is, the path to achieve
greatness starts from your thoughts, then pours out into physical reality
through your actions or behavior. If you are someone that thinks of greatness
all the time, consciously or not, it will begin to manifest on your life, you
will begin to act it in real life. You can't just be great in life if you have
not visualized your greatness. It all boils down to one’s individual self. It
is not everyone that wants to be great, so I don't expect everybody to have
great thought. To everyone that aspires deep down to achieve greatness, it all
has to start with that little thought in your mind, which will lead to an idea,
then accomplishments and finally greatness.
