To Change Or Not To Change?
To know the answer all you have to do is look for changes in you. Has there been a change in your thinking; in your life style? If yes, then you have grown and if not, then Read more

Imagine the following scenario: A woman buys her lunch every day from a fast food outlet near her job. After some years, she finds herself 30 pounds overweight, and feeling unhealthy and lethargic. So what does she do? She chooses to bring a lawsuit against the fast food outlet, claiming that the food served there was the cause of her being overweight and in poor health.
Sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it? The only thing more absurd than the story itself is the fact that it is not fiction. There are people who have sued fast food chains for causing their weight problems.
This is an example of one of the ways in which many of us spend enormous amounts of energy trying to deny the undeniable and universal fact that we are all ultimately responsible for our own choices and our own lives.
How much easier would we make it for ourselves if we could accept this fact rather than resist it? But how can we embrace the truth: that we are living the lives we choose to live, that we are enjoying or suffering the consequences of our own choices, and that blaming others for our problems and shortcomings is nothing more than a comfortable fantasy?
We must acknowledge the truth of our lives, however unpleasant this may be. If we are overweight, in a bad relationship, in a dead-end job, we need to accept that this is where we are, at this moment in time.
If we don’t accept the truth of our situation, it will be impossible to figure out how we arrived in this place where we do not want to be. And there is usually only one reason: We made choices, and these choices were based on our thought patterns at the time that we made them.
The good news is that our thinking and our choices are changeable. Nothing is set in stone! There is time to right the wrongs.
We have a responsibility to ourselves and to the world to stop blaming those around us and start looking inside ourselves for the answers. Yet changing our thinking is only the first step.
Once we have mastered the art of positive, creative consciousness, we have the ability to make choices and choose actions that will enhance our lives and bring us closer to our purpose and destiny.
Imagine that a woman decided that she was unhappy with the extra pounds she’d gained after many years of eating fast food on a regular basis. Imagine that this woman took the time to really understand and accept that she – and no one else – was responsible for her eating choices. Having acknowledged this fact, she then decides to make the changes in her lifestyle to become the healthier, slimmer person she wants to be.
Instead of looking to blame someone or something else, she’s now chosen to make the changes necessary in her thoughts and actions to create the life they want.
It is not an easy road, but it is the only worthwhile path to take. Personal growth depends on taking responsibility for your life, no matter how good (or bad) it may seem.
Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “You are what you think about.” Whenever one thinks a positive or negative thought, it has repercussions that affect the entire person. Your mind and body are one, there is no separation between the two. The health and well-being of one is directly tied to the health and well-being of the other.
So how does one go about changing his or her mind-set? How can someone harness this incredible power of the human mind in order to better control his or her physical health and strength? The first step is to change your attitude. It all begins with this concept. Once one understands that his or her attitude controls his or her thoughts, he or she can begin to understand the totality of his or her individual make-up and the world that he or she can create for themselves.
In other words, your perspective can change the outcome of any given situation. For example, let’s say someone gets fired from his or her job. On the one hand, a person may perceive this as a disaster. He or she has no income, a reduced livelihood and the potential for financial ruin if he or she allows him or herself to become despondent. This is one potential outcome.
The other side of this coin is to understand that one door closing is another opening up. Getting fired is the opportunity to find a better job. One that pays more and one that is more fulfilling to the individual. Oftentimes, one is stuck at a certain point in his or her life and getting fired from his or her job can be the catalyst for change. The next job he or she gets is a step up and his or her life can be improved dramatically. This is the other potential outcome of getting fired.
So, which of these possibilities is correct? Both and neither. It all depends on the attitude and perception of the person who experiences it. Always keep in mind the concept what you think about, you bring about. Thinking that getting fired is a horrible thing will make it so. Thinking of a firing as an opportunity in life will make it so, as well.
This is not an easy thing to incorporate into one’s life. It takes patience and practice. Try starting out with a simple mental mantra like, “I can do this” or “It is all about how you look at things”. Repeat these phrases and others of a positive affirmation and it will get easier. Think positive and your mind will become conditioned to the fact that things are how you view them. But one must also take action on this knowledge by living these concepts in practice.
If you believe the world is a cesspool of depravity, this is what you will see. Believe the opposite – that the world is a place of goodness and well-meaning people and this will become the reality. Take charge of your mind and attitude and this will lead to whatever your heart desires.
