“The Power of Your Attention” by Joan Y. Edwards

I want you to realize the power of your attention. In which of the following statements is the power of attention most obvious.
Choose the 5 that most appeal to you and explain!

1. Don’t let negative images shackle your future accomplishments.
2. I, not events, will decide whether I will be happy or unhappy today.
3. Bloom where you are planted.
4. Whenever you get a chance to laugh – take it.
5. Take the days the way they come, then make them into the days you want them to be.
6. Others can stop you temporarily – you are the only one that can do it permanently.
7. We do not see things the way they are. We see things the way We are.
8. Negative anticipation becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy.
9. When you cease to see, it ceases to be.
10. Nothing is impossible for the willing mind.
11. A winner sees what he likes to happen. The loser pictures failure.
12. Who cares where you have been – the world only cares about whether NOW you can or can’t, will or won’t, and do or don’t.
13. There is no separating the cause from the effect.
14. Your attitude reflects your usefulness in life.
15. Happiness is optional, but so is misery.
16. Don’t take yourself too seriously.
17. Small things bother small people.
18. A winner does what has to be done even if he does not like to do it.
19. Pretend to be what you want to be and you will become what you pretend.
20. The way you see life will largely determine what you get out of it.
21. Entertain self-pity and you have stress as a constant companion,
22. Stress is where we perceive it. .
23. Too many lives drift away without an ounce of self-control.
24. What you are depends on what you believe to be true about yourself.
25. People become what you expect them to be.
26. There is always a new chance in life — if you are willing to change.
27.  If you think you cannot win, you can be sure of defeat.
28.  If you wait for your mood to be right, you will never accomplish anything.

 

NOW UNDERLINE THE STATEMENT THAT MOST APPEALS TO YOU. TRANSFER IT TO A 3 x 5 CARD AND

PLACE IT WHERE IT WILL DRAW YOUR ATTENTION AND ACT AS A FREQUENT REMINDER.

CONCLUSION

There is an abundance of success waiting for each and everyone; but it is not available to everybody,

because…DIFFERENT PEOPLE REACT DIFFERENTLY TO THE SAME SITUATION.
