“Every man is what he is because of the dominating thoughts which he permits to occupy his mind.” ~ Napoleon Hill from Think and Grow Rich
Again, what thoughts do you allow to dominate your consciousness?!?
As Hill says: “It is essential for you to encourage the positive emotions as dominating forces of your mind, and discourage--and eliminate negative emotions.”
(ECHO!) EVERY great teacher echoes this sentiment. Dyer has one of my favorite ideas when he advises to never let a negative sentence complete itself in your head. Powerful.
