What Makes the Difference?
Why are some people well-off financially and others poor? Why are some so
well paid while others are so poorly paid? What’s the difference? What's going
on here? These are the questions that Earl Nightengale set out to answer
at age 12, and came upon a realization at age 29.
The astonishing truth is that we become what we think about. WE create our
own worlds all the years of our lives. We become what we think about most
of the time. And if we don’t think at all, we don’t become anything at all. There
it was—just six words. Our minds are the steering mechanisms of our lives.
Each of us is sentenced to become what he or she thinks about. Our brains are
what make us human. How we use them decides our destiny.
Try this: In a normal day, you focus on work, on the tasks at hand. What do you
think about as you go through a project? What do you think about while you drink
your morning coffee, or while you relax before bed? Over the next few days, try
to pause and notice what your thoughts are, especially in these quite times.
