Chapter One

CHANGE The comfort zone we use is a mental development and getting out of it requires changed belief. Change in belief starts with a picture of the new and effort must be added to enlarge its relief. This effort begins with continued attention each day and the development of feelings that are associated. The feelings may be counterfeit in the beginning and using all the senses helps to obviate. Left brain people are handcuffed by lack of imagination and therefore development of visual ability is a goal. Development begins with verbal descriptions as a key and using the key to open the imagination of the soul. Our minds operate with pictures every moment of the day and therefore it's only a matter of using some control. Change becomes easy when the mental pictures are there and effort to definitize is something to extol. IMPACT Our daily lives are impacted by outside circumstances and we react from past experiences or training. The training part of the reaction is mostly under developed and therefore we lead frustrated lives while activities are raining. Managing our training is a matter of choosing what we think and the choosing must be aimed toward improvement. The aim must include motivational elements that work and this depends on what we want for advancement We can impact our lives a lot more than we do and it takes time spent with the best we can achieve. This time must be treated as sacred and unmolested and become a temple we can reach morning or at eve. Plan your impact through what you read and hear and maintain a hold on the direction of thoughts. Maintaining this hold requires a constant awareness and developing the ability to reject a lot of oughts. BELIEF At the beginning of any endeavor doubt arises and removing doubt is the overall purpose of practice. Facing the doubt requires building an inner confidence and then recognizing how inner confidence is a function of notice. Any kind of opponent presents characteristics to overcome and overcoming means building a set of strengths. Building this set of strengths depends upon repetition and opposition then is replaced by them at lengths. Initially the whole scene is taken up in Godly thoughts and the strengths come from accepting their truth. Acceptance means embracing to the point of absorption and noticing the occurrence expectedly coming through. Belief then is an expression of trained thought habits and the training bears fruit that becomes seen. Expected outcomes of training represent desires actualized and become a core of golden treasures that gleam. EXPAND We live in small worlds because we won't expand and we squander time and effort on unfulfilled wishes. The release from this small world is deceptively easy and will be realized only by brandishing thought increases. Brandishing in this case means writing greater descriptions and then writing even greater descriptions than appear. Chase new descriptions that occur with even greater descriptions and become immersed in the expansions as they clear. Ignore doubts that arise by concentrating on possibilities and expand every possibility by doubling the impact. This expansion practice is a never limited thought process and becoming immersed in it makes it a fact. The magnetism stirred by such thought patterns is revealing and reduces small world thinking to a stepping stone. God's world of abilities is unlimited and beckoning and the joyful feeling of expansion can be our own. IMPROVE Every area of our lives has potential for getting better and the degree is not as important as the direction. In each area growth or quality improvement is possible and the effort itself becomes a target for affection. Building an affection for improvement stimulates interest and the interest stirs learning that opens new doors. Improve any ability or interest by expected feedback and make the expected feedback cause hope to soar. Improvement then is directed by feedback and potential and the two offer stimulation through renewed energy. The renewed energy becomes a valuable source and the source connects with an original synergy. Improve life around you by stimulating the turns of this wheel and gain momentum with every turn toward improvement. "Good, better, best and never let it rest until the good is better and the better is best" causes this to generate more movement. PROPOSE Every improvement begins with a proposal consideration and from this proposal a defining focus starts. This defining focus puts thought processes to work and clarity brings a picture of the final parts. As a fog clears away or "lifts" more can be seen and "initiating steps" allow maneuvering for improvement. Permission to alter steps brings a better focus and the focus reveals new avenues of advancement. Final results may be far removed from the original plan and will likely be a great deal better as an end. Flexibility of plans and actions is a clear need and constancy to purpose is a part of the blend. The need to propose stems from wants, needs, and desires and a need for growth that flares from within. Breaking out of limits, real and imaginary, is required and recognition of capability puts on a successful spin. BRIEF The problems we face have a brief life if we choose and making that choice demands a new attitude. The attitude should be that 'this too shall pass' and concentrate on what to think at a higher altitude. A higher altitude of thinking means looking to God and from His perspective viewing the real significance. God has seen and handled every possible human problem and therefore can help by leading to a better performance. The time it takes will depend on how much we trust and building this trust makes use of hind sight. We each have had God-led successes along the way and emphasizing them by review will set things aright. Make problems appear brief with 'this too shall pass' and look to a future beyond that now seen. Expand this new future until it becomes a new totality and take action immediately toward this new scene. DECIDE Decisions are a releasing factor in action needed and require a clarity in descriptions of desires. The clarity comes through close examination implemented and uncovering details that determine what inspires. This closeness becomes a familiarity that leads to comfort and the ease that develops becomes momentum expressed. Decide what is to be done so that momentum builds and decisions that follow will block out any stress. The cutting edge of action is implemented when we decide and continues to open a clear way if augmented. Augmented decision making continues to open the way and gives a confidence when the process is cemented. Decide now to reach for desires that inspire new life and cut through obstacles raising doubts and fears. Move forward with the confidence that decisions give and feel the exhilaration of meshing gears. BOLD In most of our every day activities we need assurance and we look for it from others who inhabit our environment. Becoming the person who gives the encouragement is a goal and it begins by being bold in actions by increments. Boldness is built on experience whether actual or mental and the key is dwelling on it many times a day. Inner confidence is essential to any endeavor we choose and it's built through repetition that makes it stay. A blunted telephone pole pounded from above will deepen and words repeated will affect mental attitudes. Chants of groups have stirred power within and without and recognizing this fact individually uses this truth. Be bold in stating heart felt desires worthy of note and recognize God's love in choosing the aim. The outcomes that develop will be a blessing to all and the boldness will grow stronger when claimed. REALMS Uncharted realms beckon to the adventurous thinkers and create challenges with pictures of possibilities ahead. Developing these pictures requires a true focus element and this element from a mental stand point must be repeatedly read. Overcoming doubt is a challenge that must be accepted and it involves dismantling the doubt with perseverance. Detailing the doubt is purposeful in building new resources and involves a replacement effort effective through continuances. The beckoning of new realms involves inserting new ways and the new ways require an education as the tool. This education removes doubt by crystallizing new elements and utilizing them until familiarity makes them cool. Explore new realms with the purpose of expanding capability and by doing so remove limitations on a daily basis. Conquer limitations through expansion into new realms and acquire new tools that appear to give a necessary assist. EMBARK Increase is brought about through motion and the motion requires trust in ability. God has given and will give what is needed and acting with trust brings knowledge to utility. Embark on desired activity with complete release and feel a surge from within complete the connection. This feeling comes from the knowledge God gives and a trust in the fact that he deals in perfection. The road to perfection is doted with improvement and the improvement noted adds impetus to action. Perfection may never be reached but the process inspires and the inspiration is completion through satisfaction. Embark with determination powered by self trust and an undergirding desire to serve with vigor. The vigor developed brings more trust on line and magnetically pulls new resources to the store. REFURBISH Our position in life has been set by previous thought and for future improvement we need to refurbish. This refurbishing process sets up a thought procedure and the thought procedure may appear outlandish. A dominating pattern has brought you to this point and creating a different dominating thought is essential. The creation of this new thought pattern requires determination and fully realizing its significance makes it providential. Overwhelm limiting thought patterns with mental vigor and recognize that mental vigor entails repetition. Choose a thought pattern that is grandiose by comparison and recognize God's joy in your new petition. The unlimited element of God's resources must be considered and the realization that you are God's child is needed. Refurbishing means clearing all doubt that remains and entering a brand new future through limits exceeded. PRESSURE In just about everything we do pressure is involved and using it appropriately becomes a control factor. The most useful approach involves mental practice and the fact that repetition is a reality compactor. The things we think about most are within our control and the most beneficial act is to use hope. Expanding hope through proper choice is essential and pays dividends instantaneously in its scope. Use pressure thinking to imprint the best of thoughts and include feelings that support hope activities. Including feelings to match hope augments reality and brings activities to life from hopeless civilities. Enjoy the moments of hopeful thinking thus stirred and project an expansion with all mental vigor. Use pressure to fill this mental vigor to the brim and thus realize the actuality that causes hope to soar. CLEAR The way to clear out thoughts of frustration is simple and relies on forgiveness that is personal but strong. Release of responsibility is a beginning point of transition and recognition of a resulting freedom leads to a song. Freedom from frustration means letting go of your grip and letting the causes slip away with a feeling of ease. Thoughts that hold the frustrations must be released and renewed efforts to release will be found to please. The clarity that results will open to constructive efforts and boost the growth of hope and happiness that enthralls. Once this new vision appears momentum takes hold and a magnetism attracts benefits like a spinning ball. Clear out thoughts that depress to make room for better input and seek the calming presence of God's love for all. Feel God's love for all creation, but make it personal and feel it spread to all contacts within your call. POWER Exercise brings power to a useful and beneficial level and is easy to understand in the physical sense. The same approach yields a corresponding result mentally and requires the same kind of discipline expense. Our thought patterns are trained by repetitious actions and produce action results as focus turns the key. The clarity of our focus then adds power to reality and programming produces results we can see. Memory is improved through repetition we mentally offer and utility is eased whether its physical or mental. The concentration that's initially required leads to power and proves its value in outcomes that are developmental. Develop power then through intent wrapped in planning and expand the power by exercises that can expand. The expansion ability directed by God's love is best and brings a world vision possibility to where we stand. SWARM Every day we are hit with a swarm of thoughts and unless controlled, input can overcome output. The input uncontrolled contains more negatives than positives and it becomes our responsibility to build barriers with deep roots. The barriers may be rejection or a better crowding of the mind and the best is meant to allow little or no room for negatives. Choosing trains of thought for power depends on usage and the usage requires recognition of good superlatives. God's word contains the greatest source of superlatives and beckons readership for the strength we need. Many authors exist who use the Bible as a springboard and they join to give added strength if we read. Counteract the swarm of negatives with a swarm of positives and note the swelling feel of life giving energy. This life giving energy radiates from us to those around and is regenerating in effect when utilized consistently. (Continues...)
