It’s all in your mind

A little over a decade ago, I heard a line from a movie that literally opened my thoughts about how powerful the mind is and how if functions. Over and over again people have written about the power of the human mind. That line for a long time influenced the way and manner in which I manage challenges. Although I cannot remember what movie it was, I remember very clearly the words in the line. They were the words of a teacher who had a group of special students and in one of his sessions with them said, ‘Your Mind is Your Power House.’

Take a minute to digest that line. Say it to yourself. Whisper it to yourself…‘My mind is my power house.’

True it is. Everything you accomplish or fail to accomplish starts as a seed in your mind. Your success or failure at that project, examination, or whatever pursuit it might be, depends strongly on how your mind is set. If your mind is set to succeed, you will succeed. It is said that whatever the human mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.

Your capacity to hit your target lies in the way your mind is set or made up.

Let’s use the sniper as a quick example. Once the sniper locks his target within his shooting range through his lens, there is very little that can be done to make him miss his target. That’s the same way the human mind works.

Once you have your mind set on a goal and you ignore all forms of distractions, you surely will hit your target.

Success, wealth, abundance, health, poverty, fear, shyness, e.t.c are all products of a mindset.

Adenike Oke was right when she said, “there is nothing as powerful as a made up mind.”
