What you do with the first half hour of your morning matters. When we get up and spend time in God’s word and in prayer and we seek his vision for our lives we are speaking to our creator.

If you want to create a compelling future, you have got to get on top of who is getting your attention.

I want you to shift from a mindset of victimhood to one of empowerment through personal responsibility, resilience and faith in Christ. These ideas are based on Romans 8:37 in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. And, the Bible tells us, our mindset shapes our reality. Proverbs 23:7 for as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
It All Starts With a Thought: Unlocking Your Bigger and Better Future
This statement allows your brain to come up with thoughts. It gives your brain the opportunity to get out of the past. It allows our brain to play. You are directing your mind to creative intentional thoughts. Our minds are designed to create, to daydream to be useful. When we were children, we did this all the time with our thoughts.
