“You have to think big to be big.” – Claude M. Bristol
Imagine yourself watching the same movie many times a day, day after day.
After a while, you know it by heart and it becomes boring. There are no surprises anymore.
In time, if you keep watching the same movie, watching it becomes a habit. You don’t even try to watch a new movie. You go through the same story, day after day and it becomes an important part of your life.
Imagine that you cannot stop watching it and you forget that you can watch other movies.
Real life is like watching the same movie every day.
You see your life and what is happening around you, and you keep thinking about it and about the events that you are going through. In this way, you keep recreating the same kind of life.
It is like watching the same movie nonstop, day after day.
You may not like the movie, or maybe like only some parts of it, but you keep watching the same movie because it is in front of our eyes.
In the same sense, you keep doing the same things day after day and behave in the same way. It is your reality, and you go through it like in in a circle.
You can leave this endless circle and start marching forward, toward a different and better life. Change your thinking and you will change your life.
Think Bigger and Beyond Your Immediate Environment
If you accept the premise that your thoughts are responsible for the kind of life you are living, and what we call reality is the replica or projection of our thoughts, you discover a mighty secret.
You will discover that:
- You don’t have to limit your thinking.
- There is no need to allow circumstances and people to dictate what you think.
- You can change your thinking and change your reality.
- You can manifest a better happier and richer life.
If you constantly think about your existing circumstances, you limit yourself to experiencing these circumstances and situations over and again, in a variety of forms.
You limit your life when you do not think beyond your circumferences. If you keep recreating in your mind the same kind of life, how can anything new happen?
- You can learn to think bigger.
- You can dare to think big.
- It is possible to expand your world beyond the limits you have set on it.
Dare to Think Big
You need to make your thinking unlimited. You need to dare to think big, and you can.
It does not cost money or effort to think big.
The same time you invest in thinking small you can think big.
Every person lives within a circle with a limited circumference created by his or her thoughts. Small thoughts limit this circumference.
- To widen the circumference of your life, you need to think bigger thoughts.
- To widen the scope of your life, you need to dare to think beyond your immediate circumstances.
Dare to think big. You can think beyond the boundaries of your current reality.
You manifest in your life what you focus on. If you focus on problems and failure, you might attract more problems and failures. If you focus on the things you really want, you will most probably manifest them in your life.
There no magic involved here. These are natural laws at work. Think small, and you will limit your life. Think big, and you will manifest a bigger, happier and more successful life.
You can change your thoughts, and you can change the programming of your mind. This is possible for everyone, and at any age. How far you go, depends on how you much you free your mind of limiting thoughts and limited programming.
This also depends on how dedicated you are, and whether you are using all the mental tools at your disposal. Some of these mental tools are willpower, visualization and affirmations.
