If you think you can’t

Have any of you read the book, “As a Man Thinketh,” by James Allen? It was published in 1902 and is considered to be a favorite book by many very wealthy people. Its premise is that there is a strong correlation between what a person thinks and how their life turns out.

So last night I was lying in bed churning over ideas that pop in (and out) of my mind and I thought that perhaps there IS something to that. I talk with people every day who say, “I couldn’t get laid no matter how hard I tried.” These people are usually right. They believe this and that’s how it turns out.

It just goes back to that old saying, “If you think you can you can, and if you think you can’t you can’t.” Things always go better for me when I’m confident.

If you’ve ever been guilty of thinking or saying negative things about yourself, you should read this book. You can download a copy on the net for free and it’s not a big book. There’s a lot to be said for having the confidence to know you can — get a date, earn more money, feel better.

Regardless of what it is, if you think you can or you think you can’t, you’ll always be right.
