Thought And Purpose 


Until thought is linked with purpose there is no intelligent 
accomplishment. With the majoritythe bark of thought is allowed 
to "drift" upon the ocean of life. 

They who have no central purpose intheir life fall an easy prey to 
petty worries, fears, troubles, and self-pityings, all of which are 
indications of weakness, which lead, just as surely as deliberately 
planned sins (though by a different route), to failure, 
unhappiness, and loss, for weakness cannot persist in a power-evolving universe. 
A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart, and 
set out to accomplish it. 

He should make thispurpose the centralizing point of his 
thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be a 
worldly object, according to his nature at the time being. 
Whichever it is, he should steadily focus his thought-forces upon 
the object he had set before him. 
He should make this purpose his supreme duty and should devote 
himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts to wander 
away into ephemeral fancies,longings, and imaginings. 
This is the royal road to self-control and true concentration of 
thought. 

Even if he fails again and again to accomplish his purpose--as he 
must until weakness is overcome--the strength of character gained will be
 the measure of his true success, and this will form 
a new starting point for future power and triumph. 

Thoughts of doubt and fear can never accomplish anything.

They always lead to failure. Purpose, energy, power to do, and all 
strong thoughts cease when doubt and fear creep in. 

The will to do springs from the knowledge that we can do. Doubt 
and fear are the great enemies of knowledge, and he who 
encourages them, who does not slay them, thwarts himself at 
every step. 

He who has conquered doubt and fear has conquered failure. 
His every thought is allied withpower, and all difficulties are 
bravely met and overcome. 

His purposes are seasonably planted, and they bloom and bring 
forth fruit that does not fall prematurely to the ground.

Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn

Personal Development The big challenge is to become all that you have the possibility of becoming. You cannot believe what it does to the human spirit to maximize your human potential and stretch yourself to the limit. The most important question to ask on the job is not "What am I getting?" The most important question to ask on the job is "What am I becoming?" It is hard to keep that which has not been obtained through personal development. After you become a millionaire, you can give all of your money away because what's important is not the million dollars; what's important is the person you have become in the process of becoming a millionaire. Income seldom exceeds personal development.
