What You Put Into Your Mind Becomes The Wind That Blows There
Surviving The Storms Of Your Mind
Mark Twain once remarked that life doesn’t consist so much of facts and events. Instead, it consists mainly of the storm of thoughts blowing endlessly through my mind.
Most of the time, I can deal with the facts of life without too much difficulty. It’s the storm of thoughts that causes such a problem.
Each fact of life spawns fearful fantasies that swirl forever in my mind.
I will die a thousand deaths before my final day of reckoning comes. Most of my problems never happen anywhere except in my mind.
There is no limit to how miserable my life can become when I believe what the inner storm has to say.
What I put into my mind becomes the wind that blows there.
If I allow negative and limiting thoughts to gain entrance, a cyclone of negativity and limitations sweeps through my life.
If I fill my mind with positive and empowering thoughts, I experience fair winds and following seas as I sail on the ocean of my dreams.
If I don’t control what goes into my mind, then I have no choice but to endure the storm of thoughts I find there.
I am the one who decides what will blow through my mind. If I don’t like what I find, I can change it. All I need to do is change what I put into my mind, and positive self-talk makes it easy to do just that.
Surviving sandstorms is easy. All you have to do is hunker down and hang on until the storm is over.
Surviving the storms of the mind is an entirely different matter.
The last time I checked the statistics, over eighteen thousand people used guns to commit suicide in the USA in a single year.
When I listen to the news and talk with my patients, it's clear that there's an epidemic of depression sweeping over the land.
Now is a good time to buy stock in drug companies that sell anti-depressant drugs.
People are smoking dope, sniffing cocaine, and taking methamphetamine in record numbers.
Just a few years ago, those same people were happy children without a care in the world.
Even being a baby isn't safe anymore - fetal alcohol syndrome and cocaine babies begin life in a hellish hole.
So what went wrong?
Lots of things went wrong, and nearly all of them are preventable. We have met the enemy and he is us.
Believe it or not, we are responsible for the storm of thoughts that blow through our mind.
If we want to create violent children, then turn on the TV set and fill their mind with violent images. Teach them that violence is an acceptable way to resolve conflict.
If you want to raise sick people addicted to drugs, then simply dump the garbage in their mind, and watch them self-destruct.
If you want to become depressed, then fill you mind with depressing things.
It really does matter what you put into your mind, and if you want to have healthy happy children, it matters what you allow into their mind as well.
I don't know about you, but I've got my mind made up. Nobody's going to dump their garbage into my mind. My brain isn't a dumpster, and nobody's going to fill it with their trash.
There's no room for violence in my mind, and there's no room for dysfunctional thoughts. There's no room for addiction and no room for depressing thoughts.
My mind belongs to me, and I'm going to fill it with good things.
What I put in my mind is important because it becomes the wind that blows there.
I will use positive self-talk to control the storm of thoughts blowing through my mind.

Although I can't control all the events of my life, I can control what I put into my mind. I have sufficient control over my mind to shape the otucome of my life in a way that reflects my goals and aspirations. I have an infinite number of future lives I can live. The way I run my mind determines which of them it will be. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
When you choose your thoughts, you choose your brain chemistry. When you change your thoughts, you change your brain chemistry. You are not the victim of your brain chemistry. You are its creator. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
I will live the rest of my life as if I am a great person. I will live as if my dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen. I will act as if I cannot fail. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
Limiting thoughts are a disguised form of negation. They are a way that I say no to life while pretending that life is saying no to me. Limitations are plausible self-deceptions. They are prefabricated excuses for every failure to be what I want to be and to do what I want to do. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
I can make a living or make a life. When I make a living, I focus on survival. When I make a life, I focus on my dreams. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
Change first happens in my mind. Whatever I am or ever will be is first found in my mind. In order to have a new life, I need a new way of thinking. That is where everything starts. I can change who I am by changing what I put into my mind. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
If I am having trouble geting permission to do the things I want to do, I need to take a look in the mirror. The person in the mirror is the only one who can give me permission to go for my dreams. All other permission rituals are irrelevant. My life is mine alone, and that is sufficient authority to grant whatever permission is required. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
The way I use my mind defines what it means to be me. At the most basic level, I am what I think about all day long. My mind is the only part of me that can change or that would ever be worth changing. If I want to change who I am, I must change the collection of thoughts that defines what it means to be me. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
I will live the rest of my life as if I am a great person. I will practice being great each day of my life. I have only one life, and I may as well make it a great one. I have little to lose and much to gain by living as if I am great. I will live as if my dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
A positive mind is not an accident. It's the product of positive mental focus. A persistently positive focus creates a consistently positive mind. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking

Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book
Many people believe change is impossible. Most of the time they are confusing personality with personal behavior. The basic human personality is relatively constant over time, but human behavior can and does change. Personal change happens when people change the way they think. I have numerous patients formerly addicted to meth, cocaine, heroine, and alcohol, who escaped their addictions without ever going to rehab for treatment. They simply arrived at a point in their life where they no longer wanted to be prisoners of their addictions. They had experienced enough misery to last ten lifetimes, and they said no more. They changed their belief about who they are and what they can do with their life, and they became a different person who was chemical free. I am grateful to those patients, because they proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that people in the worst circumstances can and do change. Because of them, I am committed to helping people change their lives one belief at a time using positve self-talk. Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.
Positive Self-Talk Gold Book
Mark Twain wrote, “Life does not consist mainly, or even largely, of facts or happenings. It consists mainly of the storm of thoughts that is forever blowing though one’s head.” Mark Twain was right. Life consists mainly of the storm of thoughts that blow through your mind. The events of life can be trivial, tragic, and even monumental in nature, but the events themselves have little power. It’s the storm of thoughts about those events that controls our lives. Surviving the storm of thoughts is how we spend most of our time. No matter what we do, the storm still blows, and to a significant degree shapes our lives. Surviving the storm is something we do every day all day long. An entourage of thoughts accompanies each event in our lives. Those thoughts can be positive, negative, or most likely, something in between. Those thoughts are the battleground where we come to our agreement with life. Those thoughts define who we are and what we can do. You need to learn how to control the storm of thoughts blowing through your mind. Positive Self-Talk Gold Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.
Positive Self-Talk Silver Book
You can change who you are by changing what you say when you talk to your mind. Just be sure you are speaking a language your mind understands. Your brain speaks to you in its own language, and if you speak to it in the same way, it immediately responds in a powerful fashion. That’s why change proceeds most rapidly when you talk to yourself using the language of the mind. If you don’t speak the language of the mind, you may as well stop talking until you learn it. The three most powerful components of the language of the mind are images, sounds, and emotions. When my brain wants to get my attention, it does not send a text or an email. It blows me away with sights, sounds, and emotions. If you want to get your brain’s attention, you need to do the same thing. Send a message full of sights, sounds, and emotions. Start speaking the language that your mind understands. Positive Self-Talk Silver Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.
Positive Self-Talk Purple Book
Living small serves no great purpose. Living as if you are a great person is a powerful idea that changes lives, and those who take it seriously change their world. Living as if you are great means you live as if your dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen. You act as if you cannot fail. In order to live as if you are great, you have to think the way great people think, talk the way great people talk, and act the way great people act. Great people think, talk, and act their dreams into existence. If you ever become great, it will be because you think great thoughts, repeat great self-talk, have great expectations, and act as if you cannot fail. Some people wrongly believe that change is impossible. Leopards don't change their spots, and zebra stripes are forever. But people are different. People change their stars. They change their stripes, and their spots disappear in an instant of time. That instant happens the moment they develop positive expectations and believe they have the power to change. Positive self-talk and positive expectations can take you anywhere you want to go. Positive Self-Talk Purple Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.
Positive Self-Talk Red Book
A persistently positive focus creates a consistently positive mind. The same is true of your self-talk. It must be persistent, positive, and specific to have maximum impact. Lack of persistentce has laid more dreams to rest in the cemetery of failure than any other cause. There is zero chance that you will succeed on your first attempt. If your dreams are great, You will fail again and again on your way to the top. Before you can be great, you have to be good. Before you can be good, you have to be bad. Before you can be bad, you have to try. Millions of people stop at try. Thousands get stuck at bad. Hundreds quit at good. A few go all the way to great. If you don't have persistence, you willl never make the trip from try to bad to good to great. Positive Self-Talk Red Book helps you develop a persistently positive focus so that you can develop a consistently positive mind. More than one-hundred Power Graphics contain powerful thoughts that you need to have in your mind. Positive Self-Talk Red Book is now available at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.
