Words to the Wise
Every word that comes out of your mouth is a direct reflection of your consciousness. If you are constantly saying negative things to yourself, or others, your mental “bank account” will dwindle and dry up, leaving no room for prosperity and growth. When you use high-energy words you empower yourself and those around you with an uplifting energy.
In my book Cash in a Flash, that I co-wrote with Robert Allen, I lay out a metaphor for thought in terms of a bank account. If you picture your mind as a vault full of money and your thoughts as transactions, it is easy to see how either negative, or positive, thinking affects you.
Each time you think a negative thought, one hundred dollars is withdrawn from your “account”. Conversely, each time you think a positive thought, one hundred dollars is deposited. When you picture your thoughts as transactions, you begin to see their value, and it is easier to control what you are thinking.
Every situation has a “wow” and an “ow.” You must train your mind to always see the “wow” side of things and learn from the “ow”. Allow yourself to say “wow” things! Don’t be shy in expressing your dreams because dreams are tomorrow’s memories. Be conscious of what you say, but more importantly, what you think.
