We can't stop the negative voices from speaking, but we can choose whether or not we're going to dwell on what they say.

Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear? And don't you remember? MARK 8:18 HOW'S YOUR SPIRITUAL VISION this morning? Are you focusing on your problems, on what you can't do, on what you can't have? The barrier is in your mind. It's not God's lack of resources or your lack of talent that holds you back. It's simply because you are focused on the wrong things.

It starts in your thinking. Nothing will change until you make up your mind that you are not going to accept mediocrity.

Your life is going to follow your thoughts.

Quit being frustrated by people who are not for you, people that make negative comments and try to discredit you, marginalize you. You're not defined by what they say. They don't control your destiny. That's just noise. Don't give them the time of day.

Get rid of that small-minded thinking and start thinking as God thinks. Think big. Think increase. Think abundance. Think more than enough.

It takes a mature person to recognize what you're not. Knowing what you're not will help you stay focused on becoming who you are, because there will always be pressures to be this, to be that, to be the other.

You can't let the outside pressures and other people squeeze you into becoming something that you're not.

Studies show that your attitude will have a greater impact on your success in life than your IQ.

Father in heaven, thank You for all the potential that You have put into me that is just waiting to be released. Thank You that my mind is continually being renewed by believing the truths of Your Word. I declare that the full me is being released by Your grace working in me. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Sometimes we're discouraged because of what we've brought on ourselves. It's not the enemy; it's our attitude. You can't change other people ... how you were raised, who your parents are, but you can change your attitude.

Everything you have in your life, you have attracted to yourself because of the way you think, because of the person that you are. You can change your life because you can change the way you think.
