If You Think It

About this ebook
The greatest thinkers, teachers, and philosophers all agree on one important lesson: our thoughts create our life. What we think about comes about.
If You Think It reminds us that our lives move in the direction of our thoughts. Are you predominantly optimistic or pessimistic? Positive or negative?
We may not know which came first, the chicken or the egg. But we do know this: first comes thought, then comes results. It may be counterintuitive, but what happens to us does not color our view of the world. Our view of the world colors what happens to us.
Understanding that one small point can change everything.
That is the power and importance of this teaching.

We make our world.

Preface
Is there a saying you keep in your wallet, on your refrigerator, or at your desk that inspires you? Do you have a favorite motto or philosophy that encourages and uplifts you?
If You Think It features a collection of timeless and timely quotations on a subject all great philosophers agree on. The single most important determinant in creating a quality life, achieving success in any endeavor, and living the life of your dreams, is simply this: each thought has the power to impact your life positively or negatively and at every moment you decide.
Thoughts are tangible things. As Wayne Dyer says, If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
The direction of your life moves in the direction of your thoughts.
Remind yourself about the power of your thoughts by reading a quotation each day or by randomly turning to a message. With your thoughts you create your world.
