Today's Gift
Today's Gift
Fantasies are more than
substitutes for unpleasant reality; they are also dress rehearsals, plans. All
acts performed in the world begin in the imagination. --Barbara Grizzuti
Harrison
Our minds mold who we become. Our thoughts not only
contribute to our achievements, they determine the posture of our lives. How
very powerful they are. Fortunately, we have the power to think the thoughts we
choose, which means our lives will unfold much as we expect.
The seeds we plant in our minds indicate the
directions we'll explore in our development. And we won't explore areas we've
never given attention to in our reflective moments. We must dare to dream
extravagant, improbable dreams if we intend to find a new direction, and the
steps necessary to it.
We will not achieve, we will not master that which
goes unplanned in our dream world. We imagine first, and then we conceive the
execution of a plan. Our minds prepare us for success. They can also prepare us
for failure if we let our thoughts become negative.
I can succeed with my fondest hopes. But I must
believe in my potential for success. I will ponder the positive
today.
From the book Each Day a New Beginning by Karen Casey
