Yes, you and I need to understand and apply some basic principle of "Controlling Our Minds". You've heard the old saying, "Don't put the cart before the horse" or "Duh, it don't work that way stupid." Sorry for that word, my mother told me not to call anyone stupid. Mind Over Money.

However, the Greatest of Greats- has told us"As a man thinketh in his heart so is he." You must be before you can have. Think and grow rich. As your mind goes so goes your life. Believe it in your mind and it will be manifested in reality! All sounds great, but you have to believe that in which you have in your mind. So, with this in mind let me start with something that will work.

1. Believe in the power of the mind. Look at all that the mind has accomplished, the light bulb, pyramids, automobiles, airplanes, space ships, and man walking on the moon. This was all done because of the mind. SO BELIEVE!

2. Take control of your mind. Our thoughts have made us, what we are has been built by us. A noble God - like character and life is not a thing of favor alone, but in the natural result of right thinking. Mind Over Matter. How--get in a quiet place, close out the outside, and embrace the inside. Read or listen to right thoughts and you will begin to establish discipline and control over your mind. As beings of power, intelligence, and love and the lord of our own thoughts, man holds an important key to most every situation in his life. Remember our minds can be likened to a garden. We can purposely tend it or let it go wild. But no matter, it will bring forth something.

3. Make a plan, work your plan. Remember that balance is the key to life. If all you focus on is money, then there is not much to life for. Focus on what you can do for others and how you can add value to your family and world. That's worth focusing on, planning and working your plan.

These are just a few thoughts I have learned and am learning. There is way more. Keep your chin up things will be okay. Mind over money.
