What we like
- A classic that encourages self-awareness, confidence and action
Mind experience
- Life circumstances can often present you with situations that just don’t seem to feel quite right. If we decide just to accept it without reflection we can be swept up into the situation getting lost in the drama. Yet if we start to evaluate or becoming aware of our inner voice we are no longer trapped by the circumstances. Our inner voice teaches us to see things for what they are and then to take steps to break out of the chains that hold us in the drama and take destiny back into our own hands. What do you need to breakout of now?
To think about
- When situations never change
Tomorrow looks unsure
Don’t leave your destiny to chance
What are you waiting for
The time has come to make your break

James Allen – mind’s garden
“A man’s mind may be likened to a garden, which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild; but whether cultivated or neglected, it must, and will, bring forth. If no useful seeds are put into it, then an abundance of useless weed seeds will fall therein, and will continue to produce their kind. “
