Audit the Quality of Your Thinking
The only limitation in your life is the limitation of your own thinking.
James A. Ray
The quality of our life is decided by the quality of our thinking. The one factor which distinguishes the human beings from others is our faculty of thinking. We are not merely human beings. We are also thinking beings. Animals also think. But they cannot think in a structured way. They cannot use thinking as a `technology', but we can. We can focus our thinking, expand our thinking, refine our thinking, define our thinking, fine-tune our thinking, etc.
We can think big or we can think small. We can think about opportunities or about threats. We can think about strengths or about weaknesses. We can think about what we don't have or about what we already have. We can think the conventional way or think laterally.
The important point about thinking is that we are always thinking. Thinking takes place independent of our will. We cannot reach a situation where we say that we are not thinking. Thinking is a continuous process. The only option we have is to direct and focus our thinking and decide the quality of our thinking.
Many of us are not even aware of what we are thinking about. Being aware of the content of our thinking is very important since what we think will come true. The difference between successful and not-so-successful people is the way they used their ability to think.
Over this weekend, can you do an audit on the quality of your thinking taking into account the above parameters and guidelines?
