Reflection In the Mirror

September 7, 2008 on 2:06 am | In Our Thinking |

We very often blame everything and everyone around us for the things that happen to us. We say I would be very successful in my business if the economy wasn’t bad. I would have great relationships if my spouse/partner changed his/her behavior, I would have lots of fun time if I had great friends, etc.  Let me explain something to you.

Imagine you are looking in a mirror. What do you see? You see your reflection. Let’s say you are wearing a white top. Can you change the reflection in the mirror? I mean change the actual white color of your top into blue in the reflection in the mirror? No, it is impossible to change the actual reflection. The only way you can change the reflection is to change the object that is reflected. If you want to change the color of your top in your reflection you have to change the top you have on, to a blue one, to see your reflection with the blue top. You see your whole life, in every area, money, relationships, health, friendships, spiritual life ( not necessary religious ) is a reflection of what you are thinking. We are trying to change people, change circumstances and that is a futile task. It is like changing a reflection in a mirror. Impossible task! The only way you can change your life (the reflection) is changing your thoughts ( the object that is reflected). When you change your thoughts you will find that the reflection is going to change. Your life will change. The business that wasn’t doing well suddenly starts picking up, the relationship that was on the rocks becomes a dream come true. Your family becomes more loving, friends are different and the list goes on. And one day you look at the mirror and you gasp at the reflection. It will be just awesome. And you will know that all it took was to change how you think.

The best Thought Mail in last week (the one that got the most “Thank you” emails) is:
 

 

Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year’s time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings.”
Andre Maurois, 1885-1967, Author
Your Powerful Inner Self
P.S.
Concentrate on great things. Let go of the small unimportant ones.
