“The unfed mind devours itself.”

We’ve all heard the phrase “you are what you eat.” Perhaps this is also the case with our thoughts.

When we feed ourselves positive, affirming ideas and thoughts, our lives expand and become better. When we feed ourselves negative and critical thoughts – which often occur when our minds are not enriched – we tend to regress, becoming smaller and far less fulfilled.

Exercise:

If the phrase thoughts become things has some truth to it, plan your future cerebral meals carefully to include only the choicest morsels.

• Consider purchasing a copy of John Maxwell’s Maxwell Daily Reader to chew on each day.
• Read a passage from the Bible, Torah, Koran or another inspirational book.
