You Are What You Think

Our reality is formed, shaped, and brought to be by the thoughts we entertain, the people we entertain, and the conversations that we have. That is why it is so important to watch the company that you keep.

When you sit with Warriors the conversations you have are different than when you sit with people who are always defeated and have a sad story. The ideas you entertain in your mind are thoughts. Thoughts bring forth actions. Actions create and shape your reality.

My dad has often said, “You can’t stop birds from flying over your head, but you can stop them from building a nest in your hair.” Meaning, we might not be able to control a negative thought popping into our mind but we can certainly control whether or not we entertain that thought, and give it time, attention, or effort.

The first step to creating a better you is to entertain and dwell on better thoughts. The Bible says … “Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." Philippians 4:8 (KJV)

Those instructions, and that advice, are strictly for our benefit.

Be mindful today, of what you feed yourself via music, literature, social media posts, conversations, television shows watched, or podcasts listened to. Don’t take in garbage.

If you change your thoughts, your life will follow suit.
