To Get Positive Results, Think Positively

When properly illuminated, the mind can take on any thought, idea, imagination or wish and focus it into a material thing. A calm mind is the concierge of wealth, born of boundless creative force.

The sages of Africa coined one of the most powerful proverbs ever – “A warrior fights with courage, not with anger”

One question to ask is this: What triggers war? War can be triggered by a variety of causes. However, there is a thread that runs across all geneses of war. It is anger. So, in their boundless wisdom the intellectuals of Africa counseled that you do not start a fight until your mind is cool and well lit.

When properly illuminated, the mind can take on any thought, idea, imagination or wish and focus it into a material thing. A calm mind is the concierge of wealth, born of boundless creative force.

Courage to fight anything from hunger to disease and ignorance takes a good measure of thoughtful strategy and execution. For you to achieve your desires you must be strategic enough to take clear aim at what you want. This requires a positive mindset that looks at very experience as an empowering lesson.
